and they’ll all arrive in time for the platform’s launch window.[/quote:f48025d5df]
how long does a console’s launch window last for?
-
Id say a month
-
Who will have time for third party stuff when there is Zelda and Metoid at launch.
Launch window – 3 months, unless you are Microsoft then its 9 months.

yeah id say 6-12 months is probably about right. Sega Rally Revo is a launch window title and its release is march 30th.
-
Its all marketing bullshit anywho
LAUNCH window???
LAUNCH is first 3 months in deee opinion of me.
Titles that release 6 or 12 months later are released in the ‘FIRST YEAR ON SALE’
Gears of War is not a launch window title, no matter what the eejits at MS say.
If you go back to its proper (non game) usage ‘launch window’ is a very narrow timeframe.
so….er……yeah.
-
well i guessed a month purly because they normally publish the sales figures for the first month, or sometimes the first week or day. 12 months seems way too long
-
This is PR speak, launch window can mean whatever they want it to mean on any given day.

:roll: PR. woopidydoo!
What im really looking forward to is the indie development scene for the wii, and the easy access to it through connect24. Last time i heard the wii dev kit’s were really cheap, i wonder what the chances of getting one are………… :shock:
