why this gen differs so much from the previous

However, it is true that the majority of high budget established IP 3rd party games are going to the PS360, and this is obviously because the 3rd parties were 'betting on the wrong horse'

Again, not true.

Monster Hunter 3, which released very recently, began life as a PS3 game, and was changed to a Wii game due to the sales situation

MH3 was made for the Wii because development for PS3 was so expensive, and since its a Wii they don't have to build an engine from the ground up (use the same engine that is on PS2's MH) , this is capcom if you think they're going to stay on one console you are very very wrong.

FFXIII was originally a PS3 game, and development was too far along when SE realised the PS3 was not going to be the PS2, so they couldn't cancel it, instead they made it multiplat

what did that have to do with the Wii? since FFXIII isn't on the Wii what does that prove?

A good video game take 4 years to develop

No a new IP built from scratch would take that long (less if its using the same engine) not a good video game
