Also why did you not count Prime Trilogy? Just curious as it's technically a true exclusive but the games in it aren't entirely exclusive (though, the remaking of the controls would make them exclusive). Also why does Twilight Princess not count as a true exclusive? |
Because the top graph is intended for console exclusives, which is a fairly loose term. People constantly argue with each other over console exclusives (stuff like TF) and true exclusives (MK8) so i just included graphs for both. Saves me a lot of hassle :p
I changed the restriction to brand exclusive (for 7th gen versions) for the WiiU as it was really messing with the consistency of the data. The PS3 and 360 are still very active consoles (unlike the GC, PS2 etc). Like i said in the notes though, i may re include them once the PS3/360 have been discontinued, or i'll add the same restriction to the 7th gen graph. The thread is pretty much in beta right now, i haven't worked all the kinks out yet.
The prime trilogy isn't included since 2 of the titles are on the GC. The only one truly exclusive to the Wii was Prime 3, which already has a spot. If P3 had never been released outside of that collection (similar to how Bayo 2 is being bundled with Bayo 1) then i'd included it on a technicality.
In regards to TP, as the graph says "Exclusive is defined here as a title on no other platform, including handhelds, PC and Mobile. 8th gen systems are (for now) ignored." The only current exception is 8th gen versions. TP is on the GC, which is ain't an 8th gen system :p
