The Wii emphasizes different values than the PS3 or 360. It will be very difficult to design a single game that appeals to users of both types of consoles.

For developers, this is a boon as they can fine-tune their games for a single engine instead of watering it down for all consoles.

For publishers, they'll hate it. They want the most exposure possible.

For customers, it won't matter. They either own a Wii and will buy Wii games or buy a PS3/360 and buy those games.

So um...I agree?

I totally agree.

The thing that prompted my post is that fact that every single time a PS360 title isn't announced for the Wii we get a huge thread in the Nintendo forum complaining about it so it seems it does matter for some customers though....

No nintendo fans are pissed off at games going to hd consoles that are better suited for the wii. I'm assuming you me BG&E2. Which if you look at it you will see a perfect wii game, but instead it goes to consoles where the userbase will most likely ignore it. Then there are games like RE5 that do target nintendo fans. You don't really see fans complaing about Gta IV or Halo 3 , because it doesn't really target nintendo fans the way some game do.

 


How does a game like RE5 target Nintendo fans?

Idk, ask those people who bought these games. And this is about how much capcom is expecting from each hd console.( They said they expect 3million life time sales)

 


Nice, except that the PS2 version of RE4 sold almost as much as the GC and Wii versions combined. Stereotyping games one way is stupid. It's as bad as the people who say that only kids like the Wii. I only own a PS3, and most people will probably assume I'm a PS3 fanboy. Does that mean I can't like Zelda, and long for a game that plays exactly like Zelda: Wind Waker or Twilight Princess?

Edit:  Just checked the number again, and found that I misread PS2 sales of RE4 as being 2.95 million.  So my first statement is off, but it still outsold either version by a good amount.
