Right... which was a game published by Capcom... and company that can afford to dedicate the resources for a multi-plat release.
I mean I don't think a non-simultaneous release is an oversight although, since you're Spanish, I can see what you're getting at. But the idea is that if you have a small team, a limited budget, and you want to get your indie game out for one platform at least it doesn't make sense to sit on it for 6 months whilst you try and finish up the other ports. And it doesn't really make sense to slow down production by focusing on all platforms equally. The game was already way over budget as it was.
I'm sure with a much bigger team and a much bigger budget they could have pulled it off. But it doesn't seem particularly realistic otherwise.
Stewart Gilray had said he'd hoped to get the Vita & PS3 versions out, if not same day release as PS4, very shortly after. And Lorne said months ago that the plan was to wrap up all the ports by 2015. So I gather the intent was there but, again, reality set in. It's not an oversight or a grab for more money or anything.
