Good Thing It’s Coming to WiiWare
For obvious reasons we had to abruptly end the previous TSSZ News @Issue poll this morning in light of the details coming from the Sonic 4 announcement, in which Sega revealed Wii users wouldn’t be left behind.
Good thing, too–our poll results indicated a majority of the 678 respondents felt leaving the Wii out would hurt the game’s chances of success.
Of the poll, 48 percent felt leaving Wii users out would hurt Sonic 4′s chances of success. But 27 percent of respondents said leaving Wii users out would help the game’s chances to succeed. Unsure of the impact were 25 percent of the respondents.
Of course, the issue is moot now, and for that reason we’ve placed a new poll for you to vote on. You’re welcome to continue discussing the woulda-coulda-shouldas of what sure looked like a Wii shutout for some time in our comments area.

Of course it would’ve ruined its success. Sonic games seem more popular on the Wii, methinks. With it coming to WiiWare, I believe it’ll boost the sales like crazy!
That was pretty generous of the,m seems like the Wii won’t get left behind after all.
I voted that it could potentially hurt the game if it came to the Wii, but only because they would potentially have to change a lot of code. Unfortunately, it’s hard to program between different systems especially when they’re as different as systems today are.
Of course, I also voted so under the assumption that the game might not be a downloadable title. Larger games take more time to port and edit.

You mean boost piracy like crazy. Wii is infamous for piracy.
I predict a total of 230,000 downloads of the eventual leak.
Well, If they are going to release it only on XBL and PSN and not wii you have to think about the other half who have a wii but don’t have live or PSN
Not to sound like I’m being picky…I’ve never really been like that as a poster here. But when doing polling, a higher number that is under 50% cannot constitute a majority. The term for that is a plurality. You have to have a number over 50% to have a majority. That’s the problem with having more than 2 choices.
Sorry, I know this because I work in politics. I use polls constantly. LOL I don’t want to be annoying, I just figured you might want to know.
Shoot. I never knew that.
I’m definitely gonna keep that in mind for subsequent polls.

You say that like people haven’t hacked the shit out of the 360 and PS3 as well. Wii hacks are more well known because 1) It’s easier (Nintendo really dropped the ball on this.), and 2) The market saturation is higher. Like the 6th generation was for PS2 hacks/mods.
This new poll is getting a clear majority awnser.LOL
