Historically my nintendo x 3rd party ratio is about 70-30, switch is a bit different however because Im buying more games these days and nintendo games are finite. Nintendo has built a real trust with me, Im happy to pay $80 on a whim if its a nintendo handled game because I know it will be a quality product and most importantly; enjoyable. I get burnt time and time again by 3rd party devs due to things like: incomplete testing, a difference in mainstream/personal taste, lazy developing, industry trends (clones) and as a Nintendo gamer, shit ports with no soul and lacking basic features. That said, there are so many 3rd party gems these days but nintendo is just the safer bet for me.

Agree, it's only fine when Sony fans do it

The good ol' "to combat your baseless generalization I will baselessly generalize you" tactic. Classic.

The thing is that Nintendo games are actually not universally loved. If they were, Nintendo consoles would have been consistently selling like Sony consoles over the last few generations. Instead, they've had a pretty rough ride until the Switch came along and that's probably due to the improved third party support this time around. They need that, or they need a gimmick like the Wii was or the portability that the Switch offers. Their own games just aren't enough, no matter if their fans gobble them up or not, and I believe that this is true for the other two big players as well. This isn't the eighties where Nintendo seemed to be the only viable choice because there wasn't really anyone else doing what they were doing. People have options now and you have to deliver a complete package.

Every console has a core number of games which are the most played or purchased for that system. It happens that Nintendo makes the majority of games their console buyers prefer. I know I only get about half of them and love having the option to compare available ports between PC and console.

Nintendo makes a lot of good games. That is why most people purchase Nintendo Systems. Its not for their Third Party games. That being said I am not buying New Super Mario Bros U even though I didn't own Wii U.

Well said.

With Nintendo games we're at least guaranteed a certain level of polish and stability, as opposed to third party games where we run the risk of serious bugs, poor performance, only half the game or less even being on the cart, etc.

You're not missing anything worthwhile, NSMBU is the definition of bland mediocrity, it's not worth buying.

Codename S.T.E.A.M. was great and y'all were mean for not giving it a chance...

One of the weirdest Nintendo made games ever...

There's the old chestnut that Nintendo fans will buy anything with the Nintendo logo on the box. Of course that was true of the Wii U......
