As it is a recent news story where EA notes the lower costs of developing for the Wii. There is even a link to a 2009 story citing the one-third/one-quarter ratio.

I find it amazing how some people cannot accept the words of experts. In other words, I think EA would know more about development costs than at least 90 percent of the posters on here.

If we compare EA's efforts on the wii to their efforts on PS360, it's pretty obvious why this is the case. If they made fresh dead space that actually pushes the performance of the wii like it did the PS360, I'd like to see how much that costs. No one held them in a chokehold forcing them to optimize the graphical capabilities of PS360's dead space. You can't just compare Dead Space to bloom blox and use that as an argument. Dead Space even got minor advertising on game sites while bloom blox got nothing.
