I just cant see that being smart for for most companies, lowering their otential profits for one platform when they could put it on two. Unless they needed the console manufacturers help to fund it, which companies like square enix and especially namco dont need. I do get that certain franchises have more of a name  on certain machines because of their past but when you put one or two iterations of a franchise on a system and then just stop and make the future instalments exclusive to one platform when it tsold well one on each platform it comes off as weird. It also makes fans have a certain type of feeling towards the publisher like wow you can just snatch these stories and characters away from me when I have been supporting you. 

Also the want the console buy the machine is bs if it was on the persons previous console of choice and it sold well. Naturally you would expect new iterations to come to your console of choices successor after that. 

Potential profits are not always an issue, especially if the exclusivity is paid for (in some cases, it is). The part about: "wanting the console it's on" is not "BS" at all. Previous machines are previous machines. Shit changes. Does nobody any good to bitch and moan about exclusivity. Naturally, if I want the sequels, I'll buy them where they are available. 

Not everyone can afford to do that sometimes you buy a console based on the franchises its predecessor had and how well they did on that platform. Sometimes people aren't just bitching and moaning though a lot of the times their voicing their feelings in a reasonable way and it comes across as geniune and their points are valid. 

@bold your right but that can go either way.
