I think we are going to see a lot of developers change plans from a 20 million dollar PS3 games to a 10 million dollar 360/PS3 game and send half their team and the other 10 million to make make 2,3..6 Wii games. This will be a business decision about diversifing their investment against risk. It will still be important to make big flashy games to brand your company. But it is also important to follow the money.

Just look at movie studios. They put out the mega blockbuster flashy titles, the small pretigie pieces, and the mid level comedy horror popcorn filler. They try to be everything to everyone everywhere. Wherever the market moves they will be there. Game publishers are going the same way. Look at EA which said they didn't put much stock in the Wii but still came out with about a dozen games in the first year. A year in which they just started to shift development resources to the Wii.



Final* Word on Game Delays:

The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.

Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.

Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.
