Core gamers follow games, not platforms, says XSEED

The Last Store publisher XSEED says real gamers don't care about platform wars; they go where the games are.

"We definitely feel that the core gamers that play RPGs are the most likely to follow the best games regardless of the system, so hopefully that will hold true for The Last Story's release on Wii," XSEED's Ken Berry told GamesIndustry.
