I'm not sure what your sources are, but the industry's view on Nitnendo since its early Gamecube days has significantly improved. Nintendo changed to an "open arms" policy with developers, welcoming new ones aboard and treating them well, and the developers started warming up to Nintendo, and now with the growing 3rd party support for the DS and Wii, that's pretty easy to see. The prices on the games are reasonable, the lowest of the bunch. I can understand Blu Ray games costing mroe due to the media type, but XB360 games areon normal DVDs. why are they $60 as opposed to 40-50 for Wii games?
Iwill concur on the media solution, o0nly in terms of saved/downloaded data, though the move to regular DVds was welcomed.
