I think you need to step back in time to the NES and SNES era, Nintendo were absolute assholes back then to 3rd party dev's, even going into the N64 era and being stubborn about CD's.

If anything, Nintendo has to show alot more love (monetary wise) to 3rd party dev's more so then Sony or Microsoft do.

But even still now, Nintendo is reluctant to buy support in a market where all 3 major competitors are viable options for 3rd party dev's to make games on, who are they going to choose? Sony and Microsoft who have treated them well for 3 generations (sony) and extremely well this gen (microsoft) vs a Company who hasn't shown yet that if they were to win out this gen, won't turn into the same assholes of years past.

If there's anyone to blame, it's Nintendo.

Great argument here. Nintendo was mean to companies 20 years ago, so no one should develop for them now. I'm sure Namco is perfectly willing to drop all support for the most profitable Japanese platforms (Wii + DS) because Nintendo tried to stop them from making games for the Megadrive in 1988. Brilliant business decision. By the way, Activision also shouldn't be allowed to make games for any current platforms, because they created some unlicensed Atari catridges in the early 1980s.

How dare Nintendo not bribe companies to develop for them! The arrogance!
