I think Square-Enix won't rush resources away from the PS3 too quickly. Even with their low sales, shifting your development weight in the middle of a generation is difficult, how are you going to convince people to buy your PS3 game (which is SE's biggest game) when you've shifted your resources to another console and alienated your fan base? Expect SE to show the Wii some love, but don't expect a quick, massive shift

IMO you're totally on the ball.  Final Fantasy games generally take a while to make and going by the production time for Crisis Core alone, it seems that FFXIII could potentially be a 2-3 year project to come to fruition.

SE have obviously dedicated most of their resources on the DS, PSP, PS2 and PS3 and have only begun announcements for the Wii and 360.

It's pretty obvious that their Next Gen titles like FFXIII and Versus incur long development times and I cannot see them shifting their resources from these titles until they are released.

They also need to create a revenue stream and this much is noticed through the remakes on both the DS and PSP and this year alone will see at least 4, but quite possibly 5 PSP FF titles.  Once these titles along with FFIV on the DS have been released, what out for where their new games are heading.  You may well see a shift of some of the resources to the Wii, but don't expect to see a flood of games for a good few years yet.

Anyway, by that time, the PS3 could very well have picked up and FFXIII and Versus could be massive hits for the platform and maybe, just maybe SE may keep a large portion of their development resource with the PS3.
