Final Fantasy on PS1, Resident Evil on Gamecube, Monster Hunter on 3DS, that kind of thing. When a game / franchise that is either exclusive or has a huge following on one system ends up being exclusive on a competing system. |
ok. I don't consider that stealing. I'd much prefer them all to be multiplatform though. Square moved to Playstation for the CD format, Capcom signed a contract with Nintendo for timed exclusives and 2nd party games. I don't have a big problem with that, but like I said I'd prefer it all to be multiplatform.
Fans are too entitled these days. Just because a company made some games for only one platform back when it was the biggest market doesn't mean they should continue to make "exclusives' when other platforms offer opertunity. The PS2 used to be the only system a dev needed to support. I don't think they felt like they were making Sony exclusives. I think they felt like the other platforms weren't worth the dev costs. Now the tools have gotten so good that multiplatform development is cheap. And the era of the PS2 is over and it takes more platforms to equal that kind of market.
