I mean, I'm pretty sure since the 360 seems like a more powerful system than the Wii that the graphics would be better. It would also probably be better on the 360 controller, not to mention it's hard to beat the online play on Live

For the same reason Halo 3 won't be on the PS3. Nintendo own the rights to it as Microsoft owns the rights to Halo.

Um.. I'll try haha... They only make it for their system (Wii) so people have to buy a Wii (making them money) and then once they already have a Wii, they would most likely buy accessories and other games (making them even more money); if it was for Xbox or Playstation, Nintendo would only make money on the purchase of the game.

But think about it. How many people out there have a 360 but no Wii? Nintendo is making no money off of those people. Well if they put SB on the 360, they're gonna get hella cash from that group of people.

Okay you seem ot be slow on getting this. 1) All the charcter's in brawl are nintendo charcter's and don't belong to Mircorsoft.

2) Why don't they expand and make no money? Welll maybe thats because they won't get any money! It will just go to mircrosoft! DUH!

3) Copyrights. I mean why don't Mircrosoft give halo to anyone else? Well maybe thats because they won't get any money for giving it and they lost thier exclusive game! Bioshock on the PS3 will probably sell but Mircosoft won't get any money and this use to be an exclusive!

NOW IF YOU STILL DON'T GET IT THEN YOUR A HOPELESS CASE.....

How would they not get money for selling THEIR game. It's called making a deal with Microsoft. Yeah, Microsoft gets money out of it, but so does Nintendo. And in the end, that's all that matters

But they make more money if it's only on their console. If you can't understand that, I don't know what to say.

Great exclusives convince people to buy consoles, like right now I own an Xbox 360 but I'm thinking about buying a Wii so I can play Mario Galaxy and The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess.

Well I only have a 360 too, and I only have $60 at the moment. Oh look, that's enough for one game. Oh yeah, I wanna play Smash Bros. Too bad Nintendo can't make money off of me because they didn't put SB on the 360.

Smash Bros. is owned by Nintendo, & that game is a console seller. Nintendo would much rather sell consoles than games, therefore keep Smash Bros. as an exclusive brings them in more money & thats all their in it for.

They could add both systems together like a xii or something. They could each get 50 % of the cold hard cash. And more great games coming out sooner. I dont know you nancies can fight all you want about "Theyll make more money waa waa waa" But it would be better for the people but they're to arrogant to care.

Yeah, I'm not sure why I even discussed within this topic, it common sense to know that Nintendo isn't gonna want to share it's profits with Microsoft.

Yes but the fact of the matter is they won't get much from the deal. They get like what 25% or the most maybe around 35%. Most of thoese deal just involve them lend thier rights however most profits will go to Mircrosoft and they lovse money in the long run. Exclusives sells systems! Lose and exclusive then you lovse alot of sales on your Consoles.

Plus the fact of the matter is that it doesn't belong on Mircosoft. I mean you don't Master chief in the game! YOu have Mario (is exclusive and will never sell out unless nintendo stops making systems like sega). They have old school nintendo charcters and Ninntendo and mircrosoft don't do godo with games. Case in point:

Goldeneye (Nintendo 64 version) arcade remake. Microsoft had to make a deal to get the rights and Nintendo said no. Now if they said no to a franchise they don't even use why would they give one of thier biggest game to Mircosoft?

This has to be one of the dumbest things ive ever heard. Nintendo makes Smash Bros. Why would they support another console by making games for it when they have there own console to worry about and support? Thats like just giving up on the whole console competitions and becoming a 3rd party company.

Seriously, there is just no getting through to some people.

That's the point! Why get just $60 (which would then be split with MS) when they could get more (about $300) by making you buy the console too? You see why they would be insane to give up an advantage like that?

A very important reason, if not the most, to buy a console is for the exlusives that come with it. If every game was spread out to all 3 consoles (ignoring the specs), then people would really only need to buy one console- and kill the other two. Smash brothers is on the Wii. say you really want it, thats a sale of a wii and the game, as opposed to just the game. Companies with the discretion to sell on multiple platforms are the ones that don't produce consoles, maximizing their profit.

This does bring up another idea though- A brawl or similar fighting game using the characters from xbox. (Master Cheif, Fenix) maybe even games from other companies that sold on the xbox like ubisoft. Not as much as of a character base, but still.

I think this guy is just playin with us but I'll give it a try.

The charecters in SSBB are Nintendo's (except Snake) so they won't let any-one have them until they go the way of Sega. And besides if they do bring it to the 360 then you would have to add some Microsoft characters which I can only think of one Master Chief. Cliffy-B (the arrogant moron he is) thinks the Wii is stupid so he won't give them Gears people, and that's about it for Microsoft guys or even interesting third party guys (Frank West just doesn't seem suited to the game)

Then there is the most obvious reason, why would you give your best and most anticipated game to your competitor. If you look at the sales records around the release of SSBB Wii sales went through the roof. If it was mulit-platform they would lose almost all of those Wii sales and they would LOSE MONEY IF THEY DID THAT.

the stupity of society always amazes me. I mean seriously it's one thing to wish something like this would happen, just like I wish they'd release metal gear solid essentials and 4 on the 360 cause I will never buy a ps3 most likely but no matter how much I sit here and wish it would happen I never actually think that it will. It's even more of a deal with SSBB as it's a first party game, you will never see that on any other system, regardless of how much it owuld increase says. Nintendo wants you to buy their system for that game. Fact is if you want it bad enough you will pay for it anyway. Besides it's not like the Wii costs that much anyway.

If they were to make it for the 360 then people that wants to play Smash Bros would not have to buy a WII.That would do damage to the sales of the WII.

this MUST be a joke topic. ugh

heres the deal buddy: Millions of people bought their Wii to play Smash Bros. Now lets say that Smash Bros was also available on Ps3 and 360. There would be no reason for people to buy NINTENDO's console if they could get the game on a console they already own. Exclusives are what lure people to a certain console. Sure Nintendo would make a little money if Smash Bros was available on 360 but they would lose huge amounts of CONSOLE sales. Do you get it now? Just because you only have 60 dollars, its not Nintendos problem....your one customer they are losing and thats nothing to them
