All hype for tekken died when it was announced as multi plat? wth? it didnt sell as well because it was outdated a bit namco waited to ling for it to release and thats why hype was lost Though it has sold almost 2.5 million combined . Also i have never heard of a game selling more because it was on one platform instead of two. can you even statistacly prove that to be true im wondering.

The game was finished in 2007... Can you guess one of the reasons why it came out so late?

Can you prove that more than one platform equals a more chances of profits? Cause one thing that DOES NOT have to be proved and is a SURE FACT is that developing on more than one console means:

Longer development time/More resources
Higher Budget

you know whats also a fact? that if namco didnt make tekken 6 multiplatform it would have sold less as theres no way all 820,000 people that bought tekken for xbox 360 have a ps3 and its a gurantee that all of them would not have bought a ps3 for tekken.  And no i cant think of why it came out so late i personally thought it took way to long.

No...

And the main reason why it came out so late was moving to multiplatform set up. The game was finished in Nov 2007 for arcades and the updated BR version which we got as just "Tekken 6" on Dec 2008. The arcade unit used to develop the game was based around the PS3.

 In short, the UPDATED PS3 version was completely finished a year before the game was released... The regular version which they could have released [since Tekken 5 and Tekken5DR proves that Tekken fans don't mind an update later on, ala SFIV to SSFIV] was finished 2 whole years before the game was released. 

"it didnt sell as well because it was outdated a bit namco waited to ling for it to release and thats why hype was lost" - I rest my case.
