Given the precedents of the last few months in regards to console exclusivity of upcoming games from Square. There is a high probability that the title if exclusive to any one console will be exclusive to the 360. That is just the most likely outcome. There has been far too much good will between Microsoft and Square to be outright ignored. Call it financial incentives if you like, but I suspect that it does go beyond merely that.
Whatever the reason Microsoft seems to be bringing in the Square exclusives at a prodigious rate, and has wrestled exclusivity out of Sony's hands far too often as of late. Were I to wager real money on the outcome of Kingdom Hearts 3 I would lay it on the 360. Unless anyone can find a reasonable explanation as to why it would go to either of the other two consoles.
The Wii having a larger install base seems rather irrelevant to role playing game sales. The Sony tradition for Square seems to have faded off almost entirely. First they talk smack about Sony, and then the strip the greatest exclusive from Sony. Hard to imagine more of a smack in the face.
Before anyone says anything I could give less then a crap about Kingdom Hearts. I never played the previous games, and quite frankly cannot understand the appeal of playing with Disney characters. I find the characters so wholesome that they offend me. Give me Warner Brothers any day. Hell give me Hannah Barbara. Even Harvey toon characters have greater appeal with yours truly. So I think I am about as unbiased as you can get. I would actually see a brand new game instead of seeing this particular franchise get a third.
