Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Nintendo blocks 3rd party games...


Would you buy a Nintendo console that would only play Nintendo games?
I think the situation between the big N and 3rd parties cant continue like this, Nintendo has to stop the constant trolling and BS coming from them, its time for N to say NO to those greedy bastards and their crappy high budget shovelware, N doesnt need them to achive viable sales at all, sw wise N is VERY strong, so it wouldnt be financialy not viable....
Thoughts?

Nintendo proved with the GameCube and Wii that they can survive off their own software alone.



yes.. erm that's the main reason I buy them

 

they should buy up a couple of devs to handle the games alone

Third parties should be limited to publishing five games per year with an additional game being granted for every game that meets certain criteria. Third parties who are only looking to cash in will be limited to five games per year through the entire lifecycle while third parties who have shown commitment can increase the number of titles they are allowed to release each year. Exceptions can be granted as Nintendo sees fit.



Thats actually a much better plan, Nintendo should treat 3rd parties more as prescindible tools



I think there's no need for Nintendo to block 3rd party games.

i would like to see more 3rd party support but at the end of the day 3rd party is never the reason why i buy a console since 3rd party exclusvies are pretty much dead like for example i am getting a wii u for xneoblade 2, a new zelda, smash brothers which first party nintendo games



I already buy Nintendo consoles just to play Nintendo games. If they didn't have 3rd party games I'd still buy them for Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Star Fox, etc.



Yes.

But they would need to better spread out their games throughout the year.
