The development costs for the Wii aren't that much higher than development costs for (high end?) GC games...

Well I'm not an expert on the matter, but I imagine that Wii development costs (especially for high end games) would be higher than DS development costs, at least by a couple million. Then again, I reiterate that I'm not an expert on it.

You're correct: 1 million or so is what a DS game takes, 8 million or so is what a Wii game takes. Still, the way I interpreted the question wasn't in absolute terms, but in relative ones: how long until the Wii starts to see roughly the same share of third-party development that the DS does for the handhelds. Ctk495 can correct me if I'm wrong.
