| Seraphic_Sixaxis said: At this point Square loves the PSP and the DS the most making Quality games for both left and right. As for the consoles in terms of HD, they've been kissin MS's ass for awhile now. PS3's only love is Versus XIII but thats better then nothing. Wii just landed a Megaton with DQ X which was expected to be on the HD consoles or the DS. So in my personal opinion the Percent would be... DS & PSP 60% Xbox 360 20% PS3 10% Wii 10% At the very least thats close. its clear to say how there gaining money off the losses of HD creation. |
I would take that as a reason to develop the game for the consoles that look to be getting the least of SE right now. SE is trying to get the image that they don't support one company/console. By doing that they are trying to spread out their games the most they can. If it isn't really equal then they will probably have more reason to develop for a console that isn't getting as much. This is only one factor though. They also care about sales, profit, fanbase, and tons of other things when deciding. Also I will post what I think is a better percentage of support from SE. This is based off the number of announced games. Each Console has at least one main series game that is of reasonable size from SE. I would say that it would go PS3(Final Fantasy XIII/Versus)>DS=Wii(Dragon Quest/Crystal Chronicles(yes I consider it a different series from Final Fantasy, same way tactics is a different series)>360(Final Fantasy XIII/Star Ocean 4)>PSP(Agito). Some of these I wouldn't really call main series, but they have a budget similar to one so I consider it as such. Then you should look at the quality versus quantity of released games. So far the DS seems to have the most Quality games, and the Most games in general from square enix. Then it is the PSP in both areas. Then the 360 in Quality but the Wii in quantity. And finally the PS3 in last in both areas.
DS has 31 square enix games according to wikipedia. (released and announced) 2 are multiplat not counting remakes or ports.
PSP has 11 square enix games according to wikipedia. (released and announced) 1 is multiplat, not counting remakes or ports.
Wii has 6(released and announced, not including downloadables) 1 is multiplat
360 has 6(released and announced, not including downloadables) 3 are multiplat
PS3 has 4(released and announced, not including downloadables). 3 are multiplat
I'll add the ps2 in as well.
PS2 has 34(released, not really anything announced) 2 of them are multiplat
There are some games that are missing though that I've notice. This stands for mostly the DS and PSP though. This gives a good idea of how everything is getting supported though. Judging from this I would give the DS a 50%, the PSP a 30%, the Wii a 7%, the 360 a 7%, and the PS3 a 6%.
