Two things... First of all, check out this quote: It's normal for companys that when they start pushing 75-100% of their resources to next gen to take a hit for the first few years. Kwaad said that above. Wow. Thats a dangerous thought right there. That not only should console makers be losing billions, but it should be considered normal for third parties to take losses too. Jeez. Second, people are pretending like a PS3 multi-plat game is cheaper to make (and thus more profitable) than a Wii one, because its a port. Well, genius, where does the Wii version come from? Are they doing seperate PS2, GC and Wii ground-up builds? Riiiight. Developers DO need Wii and DS... If for no other reason than that they're selling well...
"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
Satoru Iwata, Nintendo President. Only slightly paraphrased.
