I think most Japanese developers are in love with Nintendo at the moment.

Say what now? Look at the support for the 360 and PS3 from Japanese devs and the support for the Wii. It's not even close. One gets the 2nd tier titles the others get the big franchises.

They are in love with money not Nintendo, I think specifically because it's Nintendo it's taking longer for 3rd parties to embrace their console who is outselling the other two because of Nintendo's history.


Well M$ are just paying for Japanese games. Its a fact Japanese have no love for America (or the rest of the world for that matter) No matter what they do, they will never be number one in Japan.

True alot of games that have been in development for along time are still coming to the PS3(also being ported where possible to get some money back). But after they finish them, they wont be rushing back to it, because of the small user base and the complicated hardware and high dev costs.

That leaves Nintendo, a Japanese company, all the Japanese third partys are gonig to be throwing much more resources and top franchise the wii's way because of the large user base and cheaper dev cost. Also because they are Japanese and they love to support there own, over foriegners.

The reason the support is not what it is gonna be is because the wii's success caught everybody of gaurd as did the ps3 being a big phail. Things will change. It takes years to make games, so the dev started all these games for ps3 before they knew the lie of the land. Now its plain as day that ps3 is commerical disaster and the wii a massive hit. Its a no brainer where all the games are gonna be at.


 

People have been saying this for 6 months, yet I still have not seen many Wii game announcements.  In fact, I have seen significantly more 360/PS3 Japanese developer and American developer announcements in recent months.

We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.
