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

They actually build the engine from the ground up. Monster Hunter 3 hardly uses any assets from Monster Hunter on the PS2.
And the FFXIII example should be obvious: SE bet on the wrong horse with PS3, therefore they made the game multiplat because PS3 sales wouldn't cover their development costs.

Then why is FFXIII selling good on PS3 ? , while final fantasy games selling like crap on the Wii? heck even dissidia on PSP which is the most pirated game console ever sold more than both games on Wii.

I'm pretty sure being proud that a main series FF on one console outsell a spinoff of a spinoff on another console is an automatic admission of defeat
