| Miguel_Zorro said: They should continue to produce games for the previous generation until it no longer makes financial sense to do so. If people are still buying them, they'll keep making them. The reason they might have made more a clear switch back in the N64/Super Nintendo days was that a cartridge was much more expensive to produce than the discs of today. There's less financial risk to shipping a bunch of discs for the PS3 or 360. |
That's a good point. With digital distribution the cost of releasing on old hardware is even less. The less taxing arcade games might never stop coming out for ps3/360, at least not until the consoles have been discontinued. That's no guarantee either, the dreamcast got another game in Januari.
