| trestres said: It's been a very long time since any Japanese dev made a significant announcement and there aren't many upcoming games for the Wii from any Japanese dev. The most notable are Sengoku Basara 3 which is multiplat with the PS3 and DQX which might be 2 years away. Seems like this Year Nintendo might have to keep the Wii attractive all by themselves with SMG2, MoM, Xenoblade, The Last Story, Vitality Sensor and Zelda, because there's about nothing from the 3rd parties that could move any hardware or become a big hit. It's been happening since last year, when there were almost no big announcements and has been getting worse since then. |
It's been a very long time since any Japanese dev made a significant announcement and there aren't many upcoming games for the PS3 from any Japanese dev. The most notable are Sengoku Basara 3 which is multiplat with the Wii and FFXIV which might be 2 years away. Seems like this Year Sony might have to keep the PS3 attractive all by themselves with GT5, (Sorry, I don't actually know what 1st party Japanese oriented games Sony has coming out, but can we just assume that I wrote them here), because there's about nothing from the 3rd parties that could move any hardware or become a big hit.

Why could this be? Devs know that there's a new Sony home console coming up soon? Devs will focus on the 3DS more and forget about home consoles? Devs think that the SD market is more lucrative and hence focus on them?
It's a mystery for me, with more than 3 million home consoles, PS3 is getting about the same amount of games or less than the 360 which is a dead console. What do you think?
