"Taking the budgets they spend on HD games into account your argument really makes no sense."

I did not do that. Where in that comment did I mention HD games?

"And yes, you are encouraging it by buying these type of games."

No, because they wouldn't have spent more money anyway. This isn't going to encourage Capcom to skimp money on the Wii. This just means that Capcom didn't feel they had the time and money to spare for this, and the fact that their profits were so low last year just proved them right.

They didn't spend much on this because they ''couldn't''. They didn't have the funds to spare, and it's a waste for ports anyway (or semi-ports in this case). This wasn't a choice to skimp on the Wii. A PS3 and PC port would have cost even less.

 

You misunderstood me there. You were claiming economics made it impossible for Capcom to spend more on games on Wii, so I pointed out they do have tons of money to spend on their HD offerings.

Like I said, I rather only have developers making good games or no games at all. So either a good Dead Rising Wii or none at all. In that case Capcom could have just saved the few bucks they spend on Dead Rising Wii. And where did you get the idea that it would be cheaper to port to the PS3? You are aware they have a very different architecture?
