I dont think so.
DQX seems to have some Nintendo investment in it, and besides, by the time it is ready to release, the Wii will only have more owners in Japan.
You are also assuming that the Move will (excise the pun) move a lot of units. I don't really see it doing insanely good, or moving new consoles. Firstly, only originality sells, and this seems too "me 2" even though its different from the Wii remote. Secondly, the main, hardcore Sony fanbase already owns the console. 80-90% of PS2 owners last gen were casuals, many of whom the Wii and 360 have sucked up.
And also, it doesnt matter what platform DQ realeses on; its gonna sell. The Wii isnt bad for 3rd party software (look @ MH3) its just that developers dont put time into their games.
Besides, you're overlooking development costs. At the end of the day, because development costs are, at best half of what it would be on PS3 (but realistically 1/4 to 1/3) then SE has a larger profit margin. At the end of the day, Wii is the best platform for DQ. Its the best platform for many things, it just hasn't been given that chance yet. |
I don't agree on the "only originality sells" thing. It has been proven time and time again that it isn't true. I point you towards the mountains of FPS games releasing, and also selling well. If PS Move has at least one great game on launch (for both core and casual userbases) that's advertised well it should hold okay IMO.

I just don't see it happening. Porting from Wii to PS3 would be more expensive than PS3 to 360. Also, Nintendo's pushing the advertisement in the west. a PS3 version would be a big slap to the face. |
@ Both Red's regarding development costs... I don't think it would be a problem. I mean, 2 games already that i know of have gone multi... The Grinder and that LotR game. If small studio's can do it, i'm pretty sure SE can.

You forget that the PS3 version of the Grinder is a top-down shooter now.
Pixel Art can be fun.
