I certainly understand the user base argument, however, I am trying to think about the cost(s) of developing a game for the PS3 and then porting to the Wii. From what we've seen, it takes a considerable re-write to port a game from the PS3 to the Wii, whereas going from the PS3 to the 360 is much more cost-effective.

Since that is the case, wouldn't it make more sense to spend less money on porting, and see close to similar results? Vesperia on 360 sold >200,000 units in Japan, which was within 5% of ToS:DONTW. Had Vesperia came out first, it may have even outsold DOTNW.

Of course, this may be speculative. We don't know how multi-plat JRPGs do in Japan quite yet. If the X360/PS3 multi-plats are any indicaiton, then they do very well (as we've seen PS3/X360 multis do very well on all formats).

 

Do it like Capcom!

 

Sengoku BASARA is a Wii game that is being up-ported to the PS3.

Less costs, better results!! (have to wait and see about that)

Hmm, I just hope that works out for them. If it is a Wii -> PS3 port, I doubt the PS3 userbase will take kindly a Wii port with only online multiplayer added on.

Is this a j/k ?

It's not a Wii port..

All these great numbers and everyone wants to single out and jump on Graces. This is just sad - everyone always wants to harp on Wii and Wii games. 

 

I knew this thread would turn into this since people started pointing Graces out on the first page.

I agree

NSMBWII will probably sell over a million again this week and it's tales.

 

Mario is smashing all

I didn't think it was, but silverlunar is saying it is.

I said "If it is...."



"We'll toss the dice however they fall,
And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

It's not a port, it's developed simultaneously.

The visuals sort of suggest Wii being the lead SKU though.  It's pretty low end for a PS3 game.
