Avec ses jeux passionnants, sa ludothèque riche et variée et son choix de ne pas suivre un standard, la wii a conquis le coeur des hardcore gamers objectifs de Gamerama. Enfin!

Non je déconne. On la supporte juste parce que les nintendosexuels vont financer nos jeux next-gen hd-ready. C'est pas moi qui le dit, mais l'éditeur presque numéro 1 du monde :

Ubi's casual games fund 360 and PS3 development

August 26, 2007 - The development and subsequent sales success of casual games on Nintendo's Wii and DS is an "extremely profitable" business for Ubisoft, according to the company's CEO Yves Guillemot, who told Reuters at the Games Convention in Leipzig last week that these games help to finance the costly development of games for Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Sony's PlayStation 3.

Guillemot explained that the development of casual games costs anywhere from 1 million euros to 4 million, depending on how many platforms they're being created for. By comparison, a normal Wii game costs about 5 to 10 million euros, while an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 one costs from 10 million to 20 million.

Casual games are expected to contribute 20% of Ubisoft's revenue this year, which is up 10% on last year. Meanwhile, the entire games industry is attracting many more customers which are, according to Guillemot, "going to grow the market tremendously. I expect the market to grow by 50 percent in the next four years," he said, concluding, "It's a very exciting time for all the developers and publishers."

Pour chaque prince of persia PS2 sur Wii, c'est un Assasin's Creed et un Far Cry 2.
Pour chaque portage Okami et RE4 sur Wii, c'est RE5 et Dead Rising 2.
Pour chaque boogie, c'est un MOH et un Burnout Paradise.

Dorénavant, les chiffres wii et ds seront autorisés sur les charts npd. A tous les pigeons fans de nintendo : merci de financer notre passion.
