Because its easier to downgrade from PS2 to the Wii :)

j/k

I dunno though.

1. There are more PS2 dev kits at development studios than Wii dev kits making costs far cheaper and resources more abundant.
2. PS2 development is now second nature to most developers.
3. A game built for the Wii would have to be reworked to work on the PS2 but a PS2 game ported to Wii just needs new controls.

They've probably just been making ps2 games for so long that its easier for them to use the ps2 as the lead platform. Besides the ps2's huge userbase would be tempting.

prob. because it's hard to port a game using motion sensing controls to one without - it's just much easier the other way around

Oh so the answer is devs are lazy and cheap.

Why would they do that? The PS2 seriously needs to die so we can get games that are made from the ground up for the Wii. I hate when they just port PS2 games to the Wii, like Star Wars The Force Unleashed, they are so lazy.

Yeah i hear ya i. after finding out that they were going to port the ps2 version to the Wii and not make it from the ground up got me a little pissed off. I hate to say this but if hear another game being turned out this for the wii (as in being ported) im not going to buy it.

It is easier to fit 10 in 25 than the other way around. It is cheaper and from a business standpoint it is wiser to do so. In the end it does not matter, because most of these games are low quality cash ins.

 Boogie and Nights, I think...
