Forums - Sales - Report : PS3 faltering as publishers back Wii

elendar on 09 October 2007

The Wii being a cheaper platform to develop for has an advantage as it takes far less to produce a game than for the 360 or ps3. However, the 360 has a very large advantage in NA when you look at software sales. As to the ps3, well its the most expensive, the hardest to develop for, and has the lowest installed base.

Well it's damn fortunate that Nintendo put PS2 BC capability in the Wii. It's like they knew Sony was going to drop BC from the PS3. I blame WiiFiit (and Kingdom Hearts).

Most are ports and crappy low-budget games; but that pushed both the PSX and PS2 to the top.

Ports and crap. No good games from third party developers for Wii... I don't follow Wii's lineup but I'm unable to point even 5 good third party games on this system. Seriously nothing to be proud of. RE4 is only good game out there. PS3 has at least few solid UBI titles...

I'm sure the Wii has some good 3rd party games.

Nope. It's hard to believe but there is nothing good. It's hard to find third party game with metascore over 75%.

 Eight of the top fifteen. Did you count differently than me?

" In the issue of Game Informer where the first Red Steel images were revealed (remember that one?), an interview with George Harrison appeared where he elaborated that Nintendo learned Sony’s huge library strategies with the PS2 and were set to emulate that with the Wii. "

Why is it that you people don't want the other consoles to have support? 86, 47, and 38 are not that far apart from each other, esspically when you look at the games that are being released for each platfrom.


I dont know what kind of people I am when you refer to me as "you people". I would love all consoles to have support, which in fact they do. However, saying that 86 and 38 are almost the same support in any case is just not right. Thats what I dont like, "you people" claiming such things. Then one can also say that 250 USD and 500 USD are almost the same price as well. One is twice the other, plain as that.
