While platformers are no longer that much of a dominent genre in video games anymore I am stunned by how little they are made for the next gen systems and how an even smaller amount are 3d. Games within this genre on 360 and the PS3 are prodomenantly aimed for kids or are poor mocie tie ins such as Kung Fu Panda and while the Wii does have a greater amountof platformers many of them I find are still of a poor quality. Do any of you lot have an oppinion on this and would be able to highlight some hidden platforming gems of this generation (preferably on the 360 or Wii since I own them, but if you can name some for the PS3 for other readers.)that I should check out.
As aside note the reason I speak mostly of the lack of 3d games rather than 2d ones is not because I dont like 2d games, its just that they do appear more often and thanks to things like the virtual console I have a constant stream of 2d titles and want some 3d action.
