Those latter games had exclusive deals tied to them from the start and there's been no word whether this has one attached too, so I’d guess it doesn’t. And those other titles never left the Wii because...well...there just wasn't that much of a following for them. I somehow just don't see people clamoring for Sonic Colors and Mad World to grace their systems, so there's really no reason for them to port those.

Plus for each exclusive that you named that didn't leave the platform, there have been several major ones that have (RE4 anyone?), so really, it's a coin flip.

I say it will eventually for one simple reason: Because of the lack of success of the Wii U. If they don't port it, they're flat out leaving money on the table, and if you think they're going to risk closing their doors as a studio just to remain loyal to one company, then you’ve got another thing coming.

If it does stay exclusive though, it’ll be that way only because they couldn’t afford to port it to the other consoles, not because they don't want to spite Ninty. It's just too costly these days for their to be true 100% third party exclusives which is why they're so rare.

I love how even if a developer comes out and says a game they are "MAKING" on the ps4 is only running 30 fps at 720, everyone would assume they are lying and its guaranteed 1080p 60 fps, or by launch they will up.

Then when it comes to Nintendo you can have half the industry say its 1080p 60 fps and people will fight tooth and nail arguing how its not only wrong but impossible.

Because you don't need to be a cheerleader to post.

I'd say the opposite: the only way this will end up on competing platforms is if it bombs so horribly that Nintendo decides selling their exclusivity rights would be necessary to recoup some of their development losses.
