| Squilliam said: Why would one game for an area of the world where home consoles are struggling overall effect the big picture at all that much? Besides this, the Wii is NOT the PS2. Will never be like the PS2. It will not attract the most talented 3rd party developers, not now and not 2 years into the future. The platforms they are working on now will likely be the platforms they will be working on at the end of the generation, it doesn't make sense to retool for a different platform halfway through when they have established their tools, systems and franchises. |
Increasing revenue has nothing to do with using their established tools. I don't see how your argument holds anything, especially in the light of lowered development costs for the Wii.
One could see finishing a current project before redeploying (and aren't cancelled projects/dev teams all the rage nowadays?), before moving on to the greener platform.
