Sony won’t tolerate Wii to Move ports

[geoflcl]

Why wouldn't Sony want shovelware? It makes them money, doesn't it? And it's not like they have to play it or anything...

If I were large and in charge of a major console company, I'd embrace shovelware with open arms.

Of course, Sony, of course.

It's just typical corporate posturing - like Jobs vs Adobe - at the end of the day who really cares enough to get irritated?

It is difficult to stop shovelware. Remember Nintendo's stance on the N64? And look how that turned out.

It still had the greatest fucking console games of all time though, thanks to that policy. There were a few really bad N64 games (Doom 64 anyone?), but their no shovelware policy provided them with probably the largest amount of quality games of any console to date, even the 360 and PS2 have more shovelware by comparison. Really, they have every right to not allow shovelware to be published on their consoles, people will still love the good games and buy them so long as they release a steady stream of quality titles, something the Wii doesn't see because it's basically one big popular title and then shit all for 6 months until another hyped up game comes along.
