We'll put our harder-edged stuff on the HD consoles. If Wii owners want it, they will buy a PS3 or Xbox 360 -- and many already have them anyway." |
This. I've spoken with some publishers and this is basically their entire mind set.
They are using the movie insutry "direct to DVD" model. Most of the major movie publishers own the smaller art house and low budget publishers which they pump out direct to DVD products like rabbits. They easily cover their proeduction budgets and over time the volume of them provide ample money to fund the larger blockbusters.
The PS2 did the same thing only the "direct to DVD" crap and block busters were both on the same console.
