Nintendo has announced that starting next year, Wii owners will be able to use a new service called either WiiWare or Wii Software to download games from developers via the Shop Channel. By allowing the games to be downloaded instead of stocked in stores, smaller companies get a chance to create games and see if they catch on without risking a huge investment.

I think this will definitely lead to some amazing games since there's plenty of people with plenty of ideas on how to use the innovative controller. And I'm sure there will be plenty of websites that popup to point out the cream of the crop via rating systems too. If Wii Sports has proven anything, it's that you don't need some massive budget graphics as long as the gameplay is solid.
