People were doing that with Wii u and we saw how well those games sold

Yeah sure. Mass Effect 3 only was on par with the Mass Effect collection.

Wiiu had quite a few games that werent late ports, two CODs, 2 Assassin's Creed, a Splinter Cell, and they bombed all of them. Check the multiplats for the system and they all bombed. People love ignoring those. I think people expect to have ALL games (3rd party wise) on Sony, most on Xbox (sans some Japanese ones) and pratically none on Nintendo, which is been that why since N64 and its no one's fault but Nintendo.

The system just came out, give it some time. It wasnt like they were pumping out games on 3ds day one. Patience. Even then i wouldnt expect stuff like Persona 5

Just like how many years it took Nintendo to damage its look to a "kiddy" only product. Every 1st and 3rd party has to suck it up and deal with some bombs to correct the image problem. If you just do one thing. Good or bad. It's not gonna make 1997-present magically disapear. Nintendo's kiddy image has been with a generation of people growing up. So ofcourse they're gonna think this way. And be really hard to take Nintendo seriously. Even when every now and again some people try.

I dont think they have to suck up anything. At this point 3rd parties have spent longer not fully dealing with Ninty and vice versa for most of the modern video game era. Why change now?
