Yeah, it costs less to develop Tiger LCD games too. This just in: shitty games cost less money to make!
Because we all know development costs are relative to quality.
Cost of Development greatly favored Gamecube last time, didn't it.
they all cost relatively the same last gen. half way through Nintendo cut it's liscenceing fees big time though.
The developmental costs may be lower for Wii, but there will be less ports from 360 and PS3 games from third parties because of the tremendous drop-off in technology. So the user base will still be the determining factor, as it always has been.
