So if you look at the worldwide minus Japan you have :

Wii : 20.3 millions

Xbox360+PS3 : 28 millions.


That's still 40% of the market. I don't think a shareholder for any 3rd party developer wants to hear that 40% of the market will be ignored, especially having a portfolio on the side ndicating the success of the wii.

 

Anyways I think your point is good, except that you should be more specific. The Wii won't see many HD multiplatform games ported over, because developers will justify that the cost of such development may outweigh the profit made, especially when you consider this market overlaps. There's such a thing as owning more than one console.


 I agree completely with this, but I find it funny that even with the combined market share of PS3 and 360 being far from 40% many Wii fanboys already predict a developer exodus, and bankruptcy for those who obstinately stick with HD consoles.
