they will get less and less i think. most publishers wont bother downgrading their games (visually, physics) and trying to port the game to the WiiU. the PS4/X1/PC market seems like it will be the place to go to for third parties this gen.


Yes because the PS2 was more powerful than the Xbox


The PS2 was a huge leap above the previous gen so it didn't matter. If it was merely an overclocked PSOne, developers would have prioriticed the gamecube or xbox. Just as they prioriticed the 360/ps3 despite the wii's larger userbase.


Yup pretty much. If instead of making the PS2, Sony had upped the RAM in the PSOne, added a new casing, and tried to sell the console around the concept of the new EyeToy bundled with each system -- developers would've shifted their dev focus to the GameCube and XBox.

There's just no way things like GTA3 and Devil May Cry and Final Fantasy X and MGS2 would be able to run on an overclocked PSOne without massive sacrifices to the scope/ambition of the games. Most developers wouldn't even bother with a "PSone+" version.
