| omgwtfbbq said: 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 |
You may be right about the games underway already, but why would they start any new games for the PS3, when they can easily see the retail situation? Companies are beholden to their shareholders and investors, and those people want profits and the PS3 is less likely to generate profits ongoing,
it would make no sense to start new game, in fact the costs they've already spent are sunk costs, they shouldn't have any bearing on their future decisions
Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
