"6. Outsourcing & Reprioritizing of First Party Titles – In response to Third Party developers complaining of Nintendo’s near impossible to compete against first party line up Nintendo licenses out several franchises to third party developers during the Gamecube days to try and bring favor back to their brand. In addition Nintendo also tried its hand at letting lower tier talent within the company try their hand at franchises such as Mario. The Gamecube generation was perhaps the worst generation for Nintendo’s first party titles ranging from the Miyamoto absent Super Mario Sunshine to Namco’s uninspired Starfox Assault. It was this trend that led to many calling Nintendo's first party games rehashed and done to death."
sorry what?
I for one thought that the gamecube first party games were great. I enjoyed sunshine more than 64 and SMG. Starfox adventures more than the originals and wind waker is my 2nd favourite game of all time.
If anything, these games are absolutely not rehashed. You try telling me what game in the metroid series is similar to prime? or zelda and wind waker? or Mario and sunshine? or Starfox and adventures? smash bros and melee? etc.
Point made.
