The latest version allows for Wii Publishing to the Wii Dev Kit. For my sake, i'd better get a good paying job in the mean time to bankroll this project as I will also be upgrading to a iMac 24" with an Nvidia 512MB card and 4 gigs of ram. The current Mac Mini computer could be used a game file resource server on a direct Apple Talk File Sharing connection. So look forward for a game by; TGI-Media Entertainment Currently my site is all screwed to hell, but I am beginning a Mac developed Wii game with the power of the UNITY game engine.

The Wii has the most origional form of gameplay I have seen (which is getting to be typical of Nintendo, but we love them for it, Eg. DS) and it being the cheapest of the three consoles, how can you possibly love any other console? oh yeah, their dev kit is apparently being given out for free to some development companies and even if you aren't lucky enough to be apart of one of these development companies that got one for free... it is almost 1/4 the price of the PS3 dev kit?! Nintendo, to be sure, really do understand the gaming market and what the player wants to see and gives it to them. ive had to do research on the Xbox 360, the Wii and the PS3 and after all the information I have gathered for my report I can honestly say I have fallen for the Wii.

The Wii dev kits are expected to cost less than $2000, compared to $30,000 for PS3 dev kits. Bogost continues by predicting that there won’t be any indie Wii games this year, which is rather disappointing, to say the least.

I thought I had heard somewhere that the Wii dev kit would be affordable to many people, but perhaps I was misinformed or misunderstood the information. Sad news for me, but I am glad to hear that it will be cheaper than most other consoles development kits - undoubtedly leading to more and cheaper games as you mentioned.
