Hi, I always wondering about this topic.

The Ace Combat series started out on the arcade systems as Air Combat and Air Combat 22, and then starting from Air Combat on PS1 onward until Ace Combat Zero, it is on Sony Playstation systems, and then it expands to Sony's PSP (well, there once a GBA system and iOS).

And then Ace Combat 6 came out exclusively to X360, which by that time really a surprisingly news since before that the Ace Combat series were on Sony systems. Even though I agree the reason behind that besides bringing Ace Combat to next-gen is that the PS3 dev kit isn't widely available as some people said ( please clarify this, I might be wrong on this).

And then Ace Combat : Assault Horizon went multiplatform on both PS3 and X360, initially. But soon, in a surprising moments in Ace Combat history, especially for PC gaming communities, it went to PC as well.

Also, there's Ace Combat 3D : Cross Rumble on Nintendo 3DS and the spin-off Sky Crawlers : Innocent Aces on Wii.

To summarize it, is it possible that in the future, that there will be another multiplatform Ace Combat game, be it a new one or a re-release of the older ones (like the AC6 or the PS2-era on next gen consoles and PC) ? Or in other case (which hopefully not), will go back to exclusive to one console ?

Some people even said that PA went broke sometime after AC:AH (but please correct me if I'm wrong) and then they made Ace Combat Infinity as crowd-funding game so the Ace Combat series will continue.

I think that by seeing the re-release of AC3D on 3DS might be a sign or hint that there will be another Ace Combat game to be released in future (well, I hope multiplatform again XD).

What do you think ?
