Headstrong switch focus to PS3

UK-based developer Kuju has said its subsidiary business, Headstrong Games will itself from the Wii business in order to focus more on PS3 and 3DS development. "Headstrong was a bigger studio at the beginning of the year, but it was in a more fragile state than at present as a result of being pretty much solely reliant on Wii work, which as we all know has thinned a little," said Kuju CEO Nigel Robbins. Robbins says that Steve Pritchard and Tancred Dyke-Wells will now lead the studio, as it concentrates on "three significant bits of business" for PlayStation 3 and the upcoming Nintendo 3DS handheld. This may mark the switch of many companies focus to the PS3 and Xbox 360 as developers use ideas already made for Wii on these consoles. Thanks, Gamasutra.
