Journal fistfullast33l's Journal: Proof that the Wii will Boost the PS3
In a previous journal, I argued that the PS3 would be buoyed by the Wii due to the fact that both share a control mechanism that the 360 lacks. This makes it likely that games targeted at one system could easily ported to the other based on the fact that the game design would remain intact and only coding to architecture differences and possibly upscaling art for the PS3 would be necessary. Yesterday, there was a small confirmation that what I said will ring true. Developer System 3 announced Ferrari Challenge would be coming to the PS3, Wii, DS, and PSP. This is actually a pretty big announcement in that the 360 is left in the cold. Granted, this game probably will not be a blockbuster of kingmaking proportions, but it shows that game designers are taking the mechanic into account. Interestingly, there are no details that the PS3 would feature the Wii mechanics, but you have to assume the option would be available. Formula One Championship Edition allowed you to steer this way and I'd expect that this game will translate it as well. It might take a while for this idea to hold on, but I'm going on record predicting that a game like this will become the trend and not the outlier.
