Lol I agree with psrock. Where on earth did you dig up that falsehood? "Sold the same" is pretty subjective. Madden 07 and 08 were close to the PS3 on the Wii... and of course the Wii's installed base was much larger in both cases. The Wii is close to the PS3 with Starwars too... thank god for installed base? 3rd party devs are going to look at the "almost equal" raw sales and say "oh look, the Wii sells almost as much as the least popular platform of this generation, retails for less per unit, and only costs 2x as much to port to, over that least popular platform from our primary of the X360... lets move our primary dev platform there, so we can double our dev costs and make the HD versions crappy ports." I think you're missing the point of my questions. |
The thing is that we're talking about a bad game (bad in all the versions: PS3, XBOX360, Wii, DS and PSP) with just 3 weeks in the market. Is that a good example for that kind of conclusions? I understand the point with Madden and FIFA because those games have been proved in the past and we know the market for EA Sports games, but not even the StarWars name can make this thing good for predictions. And BTW here's a interview with the devs (at least they know that they didn't do a great job with The Force Unleash)
