Nintendo? why? at least they don't buy their way in and make good games of their own... I couldn't agree more about Microsoft though.

Buy their way in? Huh, sounds like Sony with the PS1 and 2.
|
How?
|
When Sony was first starting they bought out alot of previously Nintendo exclusives. Included were the Final Fantasy series, Metal Gear, Tales series(for PS1 anyway.), and a good bit of others. Like I said before, every console has to start somewhere. Essentially people are hating Microsoft for doing the exact same thing as Sony did when it was starting out too.

Wrong. Sony got a lot of support from third party developers after Nintendo told them to take a hike. As for FF, Square couldn't fit FF7 on a cartridge; Sony used discs so they were Square's best option. As for the PS2, it had such a huge lead against the GC and Xbox when they came into the console war that developers would be ludicrous to not support it.

I just want to ask when Nintendo told them to take a hike? I knew Nintendo was arrogant int he same way sony is now, but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't tell third parties to go away.
