WiiLoaded.com - Wii Forum and News

It's hard to believe, but every so often the developers at E3 forget that they're talking to a room full of journalists and they say something that they probably shouldn't.

A developer was demonstrating her team's multiplatform game for myself and two other journalists, both of whom happened to have been from Xbox-specific outlets. She jokingly asked if it was ok that we were going to see the Wii version, and the two guys chucklingly assured her that yeah, that was fine.

Picking up the controls, she began sorting through the debug menu to get to the bit of the game that she actually wanted to show us, making idle chitchat as she did so.

"Of course this will be on the 360, too. We love the 360. Hoo, we love it." Pause as she waited for the demo to load. "We love the Wii, too, it's a lot of fun. Playstation, pfffffffft. Gah." One of the Xbox guys laughs at that and she goes on to say how hard it is to "get anything to run on that box."

At that point, the demo was ready to go, and she began to put the game through its paces for us. Another moment of unguarded E3 honesty.

Oh yay, lets start more Sony flaming.

dont kill the messenger

i hate sony....i only like their tvs lol

sony are good for lots of things.. JUST NOT PS3!!!!!!!! *FLAME*

Why?

Children, be fair to Sony. It's that kid in seventh grade who's still a little too small, but watch the heck out when its ninth grade and he's found friends on the football team.

keep it relevant people

Sony's gotten to the point where they're relying on their name more than the products themselves, which almost every company goes through at some point. it may be after years of good work only to slack off and make a bunch of things that don't work (Microsoft's Windows OSs), making millions on everything with its name on it and expects the trend to continue no matter what (Sony) or after only a few months of extremely high sales, they think it'll continue for whatever they did and don't see the need to change anything (Nintendo)

as far as the info this thread is supposed to be about, it can mean alot of different things. maybe they like the 360 because the system seems to recognize information much easier and the Wii for its fun controls or whatever. it doesn't say much that they don't like designing for the PS3

unless someone has something constructive to add, this thread needs to die soon

I'm actually not surprised. Since the PS3's graphical quality is so high, developers take it upon themselves & feel the need to produce a game with amazing graphics.

But some small developers like Suda 51 can't put their games on the PS3 because the development costs and how many systems are out for them to make a profit, so they have to go for what's best for them.

Lol, "hey ppl, i wnt 2 da stoor nd i saw a devlper nd he sed 'omfgps3sux'. lol moar ungurded opinon. i luff maeking articles aboot dum crap dat sound lyke i maed it up off da top of mah hed!"

Are you drunk right now Ricky? W_R is right. Thin about it, you were a developer and you wanted to put your game on a system that was cost efficient and could sell why would you go with the PS3?

Plus, the Wii is the most lucrative at the moment because it's the system people are currently playing.

from what i've heard/read, it's also cheaper to develop for as well.

It is the cheapest of the 3, so it's a win for all the developers to make games for Wii

Add that in to the buying factor and you have great results.
