Good point. MS works with 3rd parties from the earliest stages of hardware design. No wonder they're shedding game development, they have no need for it.
Nintendo and Sony aren't nearly as good with 3rd parties. They're secretive - Nintendo didn't bother sharing MotionPlus technology, and they're cocky - Sony didn't listen to developers when designing Cell. They need in-house devs since they can't listen to anyone else.
