Also, console makers probably as a matter of practice put a "penalty" in their contracts for game developers moving to multiple consoles....b/c they would probably want to encourage the exclusivity of the game on their console.
I'm fairly certain that this is not true dallas, as this would drive a wedge between console developer & studio relationships. No console manufacturer wants this, remember Yamauchi & Square's feud & what it ultimately cost Nintendo. I've a few friends within the industry & none have ever mentioned this.
