New/niche games have a better chance of selling well on a new console. Customers are more open-minded at that time than they are mid to late gen.

If it was on PS360, it would probably have sold worse than the first considering how saturated the sales of those consoles are thanks to a gen that has been going on to long.

Even if this was true, putting the title on all three consoles would still result in the most sales.

The issue, the way I see it, is that one company appears to have had enough faith to pick it up. And that company happens to be a console maker. Thus, it becomes an exclusive.

There has not been cross-over game-making since the classic days (where companies made games for competing consoles). I doubt we will see a return of them.

Thus, the choice becomes buy the console or don't play the game. Ironically, this has been the "choice" that X360 and PS3 owners have continually told Wii owners over the last few years.
