As far as i can see, all of the three have made systems that serve their own interests best. Besides, even in last gen, games ported from GC and XB to PS2, had to be pretty much redone. This gen, you're still be able to make somewhat cheap ports between the systems, if the game is made Wii as a leading platform and ported to PS360. What the devs complain, is their own bad developement models. |
I would disagree with this. Just as wii games are expected to utilize motion controls well to be viable, ps360 games are supposed to utilize the "power" of the console. If you check the sales charts, ps360 is still ahead of wii, that means the 360 gets to be lead platform. This is the case due to the difference in the "selling points" of the wii vs the HD consoles.
Last gen, there wasn't such a significant difference in "selling points" of the consoles.
