With the help of Nintendo’s Wii, Hudson expects to see a fourfold growth.

Hudson Soft revealed to Bloomberg Japan today that it is targeting a growth in profits of ¥7.5 Billion ($73.5 million) over the next 3 years, by leveraging the large, growing install base of the Nintendo Wii.

Currently, for 2008, Hudson already has a total of eight titles planned for release on the Wii. Amongst these titles are the budget-priced Deca Sports, and a sequel to the TG-16 release, Alien Crush. These eight new titles will complement the ten already released Hudson Wii titles.

Due to the Wii’s continued success in all world markets, Hudson feels that the Wii is a safe bet and the likely winner of the console war. Hudson also indicated that two years from now game developers will most likely see the greatest profits, because there will be a clear winner of the war, thus support can be placed behind the victor to ensure maximum market penetration.

It's pretty clear cut when I can't find a decent Coke machine near me.
