"Publishers have clearly reallocated their resources to the HD platforms..."

Something here doesn't add up...

"They can get to a certain level of success with their own IPs and their own internal development, but if they don’t have that developer ecosystem where it’s frankly easy to make money on the platform, they’re going to see there are too many opportunities in the world right now to go build games on other platforms in a very successful high quality, highly profitable way."

Yup, it doesn't add up. The publisher who lost money for years is talking about how non-Nintendo platforms are highly profitable. EA sure knows how to run a business.

So they don't even know they are losing money.

Seriously, that is either the most stupid and/or the most delusional thing I've heard from developers in... months.

You've heard worse? Pm me links if you don't feel like derailing this thread, and I'll be the judge of that.

I don't feel like trawling archives anyway, but some blogs like Malstrom and GJAIF have records of dumb comments.

Also, oops on my part. I don't think the guy is actually a developer himself, just an exec.
