Thanks for ignoring my post guys! Still, I dont get it how supporting the PS3 would change the situation for Square-Enix this year. So if anybody cares to explain - please do.

I think it's related to the "Ignore-The-Wii" syndrome.

It's moreso if SE wasn't so busy accepting payments for exclusive games, they would maybe be more inclined to make games on the Wii and PS3. 

I mean, what idiotic company would make games on the lowest selling home console than the mid and high selling home consoles?  Who would choose exclusivity of a bomba console in Japan over ones that actually sell if large sums of money weren't involved.  If they didn't take MS's money, we'd have some Wii and PS3 games, that would have sold better than 95k easily.

SE and the Japanese developers have all said it again and again.. they can no longer survive by concetrating on one market (Japan)

So I'm guessing those "idiotic companies" are looking at global sales....  and by your logic any western 3rd party developers releasing PS3 exclusives are idiotic...

 

@ Others bitching about the lack of PS3 Exclusives

Ah.. suck it!  The Japanese market isn't big enough to support a PS3 exclusive and its in a distant third place in global sales.. get over it and move on. For all your sakes I hope that WKC does sell well, cause these forum really don't need more gloom and doom threads from more PS3 fanboys... its sad
