Sonic Generations cancelled for Wii
Believe it or not Sega cancelled the fantastic looking Sonic Generations for the Nintendo Wii due to the systems graphical constraints. Sonic Team believe that the game “wasn’t a good fit” for Sega’s concept of “reimagining the series’ classic zones in vivid, high-definition graphics.” Clearly this will come as a disappointment for many considering the huge Sonic fan base on the Nintendo Wii. Do you think Sega was right to cancel Sonic Generations for Wii?
“The primary goal for the console versions of Generations was reimagining the series’ classic zones in vivid, high-definition graphics. The Wii hardware wasn’t a good fit for that concept, so we abandoned development on that, and decided that for our Nintendo audience, we would make a fresh start with a N3DS version of Generations.”

Re: Sonic Generations cancelled for Wii
I think this kind of thing is what Nintendo want to avoid with the Stream. This is the biggest reason nobody wants to develop for Nintendo right now.
Re: Sonic Generations cancelled for Wii
I've got a feeling that a version will be announced for Wii 2 at E3, will just have to wait and see. I cant see Nintendo letting this slip through their fingers.
