Publishers crazy about Wii, not so much for PS3

So it seems that at least EA, Midway, and Ubisoft are set on making lots of nice fun games for the Wii. Ubisoft has even been praising the console itself, hinting that it may be a breath of fresh air in the market. Sega, who is already known to have titles on the market, seems to be a fan of the system's price point.

The PS3, on the other hand, can count out Atari until at least next year. The publisher is worried that it will not be able to produce a viable business model on the machine.

EDIT: I forgot to throw this in, but SNK is waiting until 2009 to touch the PS3. Ouch. A lot of us 2d nuts will count that as a huge mark against.
