1. By that logic, it doesn't make sense to support the PS4 and Nextbox in their first year either, because the installed bases are going to be tiny and the majority of software sales will still happen on the PS3 and 360. 2. This point is conveniently ignoring the PSP, a system that had proven that it can't sell any kind of games on a worldwide basis, but still continued to get much better third party support than the Wii. 3. This entire point (including everything I cut off) is conveniently ignoring the DS. Do you have the slightest bit of proof that Nintendo's marketing and first party software output was different between the Wii and the DS? As far as I am concerned, there was no significant difference in how Nintendo handled these two systems. However, the resulting third party support was worlds apart. Explain why. |
Personally I think its the exploding development costs that everyone seems to be downplaying. What are companies going to do when there is no install base early next-gen and they need to sell 2 mil copies just to break even?
