Ubisoft: We've got some Wii games in the works

[Bodhesatva]

Please, please feel free to disagree with me. I almost didn't take this modship because I was afraid everyone would stop arguing with me.

There are several reasons why I doubt they'll put their best teams on Wii games:

1) Because publishers have been saying for the better part of a year now that they were shifting focus to the Wii, and thus far that has never resulted in a single top-flight development team moving over. The Rainbow Sixes and Assassin's Creeds and Infinity Wards and Irrational Games and Rockstar Norths and Bethesdas just haven't shifted over. This could simply be taking longer than expected, but I'm certainly skeptical at this point.

2) PS360 games are higher risk ventures. Because they cost so much money to make, it is essential that the best teams be put on these projects, because having them bomb is much worse than having a Wii game bomb.

Again, not saying I'm positive about this. Instead, I've just become skeptical about seeing publishers move these major developers over, because we've been hearing about the shift to the Wii for a year, and thus far practically no Western developer we might deem "AAA" has announced a game for the Wii.
