Ok, so if there is game A and B:
- Game A has, in your opinion, 7/10 in quality / replay value and the producer uses the profits to create another title, game C also with 7/10
- Game B has, in your opinion, 8/10 in quality / replay value and the producer keeps the money.
If you can only opt by one of them, you choose game B, right?

Where did you pull that from!?! Gamers have a debt? We owe nothing to ms.

Why do you think I used "" when writting "debt"?

Just scrolling through this mess it's easy to pint out the bias in this article. We get it, Nintendo and MS = bad for gamers. You do know Sony has a ton of exclusives too. Great ones I might add. As a gamer, I only care for games, I buy all consoles because I LOVE video games. I don't care what people think about MS, Ninty or Sony. At the end of the day, I will play any good game on any system available. Nintendo, MS and Sony have provided me with tons of hours of great gaming and I will continue to support all three as long as they make consoles and games.

Ok, but not everybody can afford all the 3 platforms. For those people (by the way, the majority) exclusives are not a good thing. Sure Sony also has some. But the text doesn't deny it. The text tells you what Nintendo does further than others.

You do make some valid points, but you also paint them in a very bad way. And for the most part I feel it's unnecessary to feel like they owe me or that I should despise Nintendo. And I don't see anything wrong with exclusives.
Every one of your paragraphs is titled with painting them in a bad picture, as "harming" gamers. I don't feel that way at all. I do feel they are behind in times, but this entire article is a bit exaggerated. The context of each is the same- Nintendo is harming gamers. And I just don't see it that way. Gamers have a choice whether to buy their products or not. They aren't harming anyone but themselves with their attitude, which I agree is a bit s****y. But to say they are harming gamers is false.
Harming 3rd party? 3rd party also harmed themselves on Nintendo consoles also. Sure Ninty gets most of the blame on that one, but that goes both ways. What you consider "truth" is what I consider opinion. Not all gamers are broke and need to choose between consoles. Most gamers choose which console to get first and get a second console down the line anyway. Of all the friends I have that are gamers, I know of only one that games on one console only and it's not Nintendo.
