I wonder if that means SEGA will shift some of their games from wii titles to PS3… I’m pretty sure that the PS3 motion controls will work better than the wii. Wouldn’t it be funny if companies started abandoning the wii for a superior system?
Great point! Wouldn’t it be awesome to see MadWorld on PS3 in HD?
The only problem with shifting away from Nintendo’s console is that the system has a huge installed base.
It would be great to see that and Madworld would probabaly sell alot more coppies on that console. When I tell my friends about the M rated SEGA games on the Wii they have no clue about them and are disapointed that they are Wii exclusives.
I agree, without Nintendo, SEGA would not be doing as well. I mean look at the Sonic and Mario games. They could keep support for games like that on the Wii but they could make more adult or more accurate arcade style games on the PS3. A great example of a game that would be better on the PS3 than the Wii is Jambo Safari.
