I doubt it .This would happen it those machines were the same .But I am telling you something ,most developers wont throw to the trash can their expensive development kits ,cut their developing budgets and fire half their development staff just because the Wii is a success and needs lowers inputs .Progress slowly put aside the least advanced machines ,if it wasnt like that the PC developers would still be considering 64Mb GPu as the target for their games . |
Obviously publishers aren't going to say "I know we have spent $25,000,000 producing Eternal Speculative Fiction 12 and it is 90% complete, but the Wii is popular so scrap the game!"
What is happening is development resources are being shifted towards the Wii as they become available or can be made available. Basically (with how things have ben going currently) as games like Gundam Musou end up being disapointments companies like Namco Bandai are very likely going to take those (now available) resources and shift them to the Wii. Unless the PS3 becomes a far more viable platform very quickly, it is far more likely that resources will be shifted towards the Wii from the PS3 than shifted from the PS3 to the Wii; over time this will mean that the Wii will go from having 1.5 times as many third party titles to 2 and eventually 4 or 5 times as many titles.
Third parties will still produce XBox 360, PS3, and PC titles but the bulk of their development could eventually be focused on the wii
