The industry analyst firm Screen Digest further extends its reach into the video game industry by releasing a new service called Games Bulletin which provides periodic forecasts and analysis reports. Their first forecast predicts that publishers will be focusing more on the Wii in the future, and the Xbox 360 will be continue to be driven by its strong user base.

Analysis of data shows that publishers prefer the Wii over the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 not only because of its large and ever-growing player base but because also because it's cheaper to develop games for the Nintendo console. They predict that by early 2008, the total number of Wii games will surpass that of the Xbox 360's.

Screen Digest also believes that the Wii will be the leader by the end of 2007 with strong releases like Super Mario Galaxy, while the Xbox 360 will also be a strong presence because of Halo 3 and other multiplatform releases. The PlayStation 3 however, may have a hard time considering the lack of exclusive games.

From a broader view, they believe that the Wii and Xbox 360 will be "look[ing] back on 2007 with some satisfaction" while "the same cannot be said for the PS3." They attribute the PS3's decision to introduce a price cut to their lack of performance in the market.
