A porting team wouldn't be a full-time team of 30 people for a year =P

Maybe 3 or 4 dedicated/full-time people.


It would likely be one artist and 2-3 three engineers; producers (to tell them they're doing it wrong), additional artist/coder assets, QA, and directors would all be part-time.

So you have any source that this game was ported by 4 people or less?

Or are you saying that it perhaps used up to 30 people for 9 months then it was terribly hard or not well done?

 

If ports needed 4 people for 1 year that would make porting inconsequential and all 3rd party that doesn't have contracts for exclusivity should show in all systems. But that isn't what is happening.
