That's where you're wrong. Monster Hunter 3, Fatal Frame 4 and the Tenchu series would've stayed on PS3 (or maybe also on the 360) if it weren't for the Wii. In fact, most Japanese centric franchises will probably shift to the Wii instead of the HD consoles. Only the western developers are ignoring the Wii. |
And while it pains me to say it, FF4 and Tenchu 4 have suffered saleswise because of it. Hopefully MH3 sells 2m like it's PSP versions. Of course while FF4 and Tenchu 4 may have had better sales on PS3 it'd be at a much higher cost and even greater loss. For Japan, developers still seem best off developing for PS2.
