Did Nintendo 'Jump the Shark' With Wii Music?Gamerdeals.net writes:
"'Jumping the Shark':
The phrase refers to a scene in a three-part episode of the American TV series, Happy Days, first broadcast on September 20, 1977. In the third of the three parts of the "Hollywood" episode, Fonzie (Henry Winkler), wearing swim trunks and his trademark leather jacket, jumps over a penned-in shark while water skiing.
Jumping the shark is a colloquialism used by TV critics and fans to denote that point in a TV show or movie series' history where the plot veers off into absurd story lines or out-of-the-ordinary characterizations. In the process of undergoing these changes, the TV or movie series loses its original appeal. Shows that have "jumped the shark" are typically deemed to have passed their peak.
The phrase has been used more recently outside the realm of popular culture, representing anything that has reached its peak and has turned mediocre."

I don't think that it really applies to game companies like Nintendo since they make such a large variety of games.

I see what you mean. Nintendo can easily make up for this game with another great one considering the creativity of the company. They still made quite a few mistakes with Wii Music though.

Yeah, but every company makes mistakes.

That is true, but the mistakes in Wii Music should not have been made, consideering how the game looked when it was first shown.
