Everytime someone wants to say, "why are there even exclusives anymore? It's wasted sales and stupid. blah blah blah X-company is dumb etc etc", they can just remind themselves that there are pros and cons to being exclusive, and there are a lot of devs who enjoy the benefits of being exclusive and value those benefits far more than some arguable amount of sales.

The bottom line: A game can sell better as an exclusive on one console, than as a multiplat. Sure, they aren't doing multiplat sales numbers, but there's a much higher hype train, support from the publishers, and less WORK.
