If you read the OP you'd see I said developers WANTED to develop for Wii, but they got gimped dev kits making it even harder to make games for it than it already was...


So instead they turned to the PS3, which is still considered one of the most difficult platforms to develop for due to it's completely different architecture than other systems.

Yeah....makes sense, indeed....

Perhaps Sony didn't gimp the dev kits?


So your response is "Well Sony didn't gimp the kits, so people were encouraged to develop for it, despite the incredible difficulty in effectively developing for it, and increasing their own production time significantly"

Pretty stupid thing for any business to do over a grudge....and you say the whole industry was doing this?

I'm only telling you want I've been told by a trustworthy source. I don't know why people developed for PS3 and not the Wii.

Sounds to me like your "trustworthy source" doesn't have much business sense. And this "trustworthy source" speaks for the entire industry of third party developers?

He doesn't have to have that since he's a developer... What he's told me is that 3rd parties is sick and tired of the way Nintendo is acting; I don't know if he represents the whole industry...

Developers don't make the decisions, the executives do. If he doesn't have to have much business sense, then he also shouldn't be speaking for EXECUTIVE business decisions. How is this, therefore, a "trustworthy source"?

I'm calling BS on this. It lacks common sense and defies any kind of business logic.
