Thats true but they can also die by nintendos hand if they stop funding, Platinum should try to be multiplat again, at least for ounce. Vanquish, bayonetta 1 sold all more on playstation. The PS3 version sold a lot more than bayonetta 2 despite it being a poor port.

Once funded by a publisher, it doesn't really affect the developer how much it sells.

MS and Sony both had their shot at Bayo 2 and passed on it.

It's very naive to think this. Contracts are often written multiple ways and poor sales can lead to additional payments being taken away. Not to mention the opportunity cost of a cancelled contract. Whether they're being backed by a publisher doesn't mean that its sales doesn't affect the developer.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
