I don't know. Valve seems to think that when making computer games a developer can make about 7 dollars per game. While on valve it's more like 30 dollars.
So it takes like... 4 console customers to equal 1 PC customer.
Seems like it'd be pointless to waste the effort on the Wii or PS3 when they could put those developers towards making more PC games.
I can't see console games having a lower margin, what with having to pay liscensing fees.
