Just four percent of developers surveyed in a recent Game Developers Conference poll are currently planning to release their next game on the Wii U, while 20 percent are planning for a PS4 release and 17 percent for the Xbox One.

For the second straight year, organizers of the Game Developers Conference released their "state of the industry report." The report polls 2,600 North American game industry professions, all current or past GDC attendees, to create a "picture of the game business as it stands right as we enter into a new GDC."

The survey found that developers are flocking to smartphones, tablets and computers. More than half of those polled plan to release their next game for smartphones, tablets, PC or Mac.

Keep in mind that those 52.04% do not include web-browser social games. If you include those then that would put PC development at 72.10%.

Shio! Where the hell have you been!!! Great to have you back, PC gaming is having a major resurgence!

Whats even more horrifying is the amount of people that want to develop for SmartPhones/Tablets... Gaming industry is dooooooooomed!!!!

Aha someone remembers me! Been too busy with life. Indeed this is the best of times to be a PC gamer :D

if it ment all those pc games were coming to the steam box id be getting it for sure.

Holy shit shio is back!!! WTF thought you had left this site for good! Great to have you back!

PC always had more games beeing developed for it than any other system, you get throngs of games on steam every month. Dont mean theyre all AAA titles tough.

Wii U doomed as always.  Happy to see PC gaming get so much support. At least devs are choosing the best option they have!

Correct your OP. Less than 1% on the Wii, not Wii U.

Sad to see the developer interest in WiiU lower than last-gen. Depending on the engine, it takes fairly minimal effort to port a game to WiiU. Maybe that's something Nintendo should promote more.

The glorious PC gaming master race returns. Welcome back shio.

OT

I would assume that the vast majority of these developers were on the Indie scene, which would be explained by the PS Vita holding more votes than 3DS and Wii U combined and smartphones holding more of the vote than every home console combined.

That said though, the PC gaming scene just gets stronger as the day goes on. So many great games coming for the platform.
