Now why Epic should make games for Wii? They aren't obliged to develop on any platform, I think.

Everyone can do business the way they want to. If someone thinks that you won't make a profit with a shooter/whatever on wii (and makes a party game collection/whatever instead), it is their choice.


Epic shouldn't like and twist facts.

Also, Wii if you think you won't make a profit, that's not a choice, that's trying to claim a fact. Facts are not up to choice. Wii development costs are objectively lower, and HVS pointed out they money they spent on Conduit 1 was high for a "core" Wii game, but still made money.

If they don't make the shooter, they are loosing the money they could make, and the customers they would secure, for both that game and later games.

Trying to claim a fact? :D No, that is what they think is most likely and by that, they will make the choice not to make a game. 

Care to give me a link for the financial information from Sega(the publisher) about the conduit? If you can't do that, don't claim it as a fact.

Loosing the money they could make? Customers they would secure? Wtf? And you mentioned something about trying to claim something as a fact.

They might make some profit, if they were lucky. They also might lose a lot of money. It is also very plausible that they would not secure any customers for later games.

 

Edit:

Oh and they don't have to justify their views for you. No one does. Even though you might think you as a wii customer are the center of the universe, you are not.

Actually if they think they can sell even one more copy of their game by taking a crap on Wii/whatever platform they aren't releasing their game, I think they should do that.
