Factor 5 Moves Away From GameCube Development

Posted by simoniker on from the biting-and-the-dusting-and-the dept.

Thanks to IGN Cube for its article discussing Star Wars: Rebel Strike developer Factor 5's official confirmation that they won't develop any more GameCube titles - apparently, "The studio is currently creating software for other platforms", and, although formerly having very close ties to Nintendo, "at the Game Developers Conference 2004 [Factor 5 president Julian] Eggebrecht was spotlighted as one of the studio heads very keen on Sony PSP development."

  1. Sony and Microsoft only? by Jacek+Poplawski · · Score: 0, Troll

    When Nintendo will die - only Sony and Microsoft will produce consoles. I think it will be very sad years... AFAIK console market was started by Atari. Winners are companies which had no experience in this area at all... Both Sega and Nintendo failed.
    Only invested money matters?
