It does not take 2-4 years to get the "OK" to start developing a game, stop this bullshit arguments. Capcom have time to produce spyborg and they don't have time to come up with a alpha screen of a big budget game???? What developer is doing right now is calming the angry Wii user down and while putting full support on HD console trying to convince the Wii user to switch side.

only nintendo announce games 6 months before its release, everyone else announce their big titles 2-3years advance(FFXIII,MGS4,GTA and etc). if we don't see any big title right now then its all bullshit PR talking just to calm down the Wii users.

Heavy Rain for PS3 had a tech demo shown at E3 2006.  Do you know when actual game content began?  3 months ago. 

When I and others say it takes 2-3 (or 4) years of planning and development, this means it can take over a year just to nail down the concept and art or secure funding/publisher.   When did Wii become the worldwide leader?  Was it a little less than a year ago?

Let me ask you this.   How quickly do you think a publisher can reallocate millions in resources to shift development from PS3/X360 to Wii?  You think that's an overnight thing?    And developers.  What of the projects they are already working on?  Shouldn't they finish what they have planned first?   You make it seem like on X date in history (Wii launch), all developers/publishers were supposed to stop current work and reallocate everything to Wii.  And even if they all wanted to do that, they can't.  Contracts, obligations and money are already in play.  It's a slow process that began months ago.

It's not PR bullshit to calm anyone down, it's speaking the truth.  To suggest otherwise is to admit your limited understanding of the financial dynamics of the video game industry.
