since weve been getting half assed port jobs on multiple platforms since around 2006 i would rather devs not worry about porting their games to the wii u. instead if they want part of that market they should make exclusives. this really should be applied to all the platforms in my opinion.

That will never happen, no 3rd party dev will be willing to bet excluseviley on a platform. The risk is too big and will scare away investors. 1st party devs will do that job, save for a few exceptions.

they could work at minimizing risk for exclusives. we may very well be at the edge of what big budget games can allow and survive. smaller budget games with more creativity and originality would go a long way to helping some of these developers. there are a lot of titles that have been successful this gen for their devs with out having to sell several million. cost are rising fast and sales are not rising in proportion to the costs.
