1) Stop blaming solely third parties for their lack of Wii support, the blame lies as much with Nintendo with its failure to get its prime customers ( Third parties) excited about its products...

No. The Prime customers are the consumers, not 3d parties. Where the hell did you get that idea?! Third parties must go for said cutomers. Nintendo, Apple, and many other companies know that.


2) Stop assuming crazy sales if third parties were to massively support the Wii, It's unrealistic to expect the software market on the Wii would increase massively if more third parties were to support that console. Which means you would end up having a lot more product competing for a slice of a slightly bigger pie...

Is not crazy, is logical. Not only in consoles but in any other kind of product. More support, more sales, more customers. That simple.

90% of the people on this site claim they have better ideas on how to run a development studio than the people currently doing this yet they fail basic maths and business practices 101......

And you fail in marketing, sales and business administration. Next time do your research OR SHUT UP and let the grown ups talk, kid.

 

 

You fail to understand my first point.

Nintendo can make 1 game or get third parties on board that will create 10 games, which do you think will generate more money for Nintendo in the end ?

Third Parties are a great profit accelerator for the console maker and Nintendo has failed to get them excited about its product yet people on this site constantly keep blaming the third parties and never Nintendo...

And stop comparing Nintendo and Apple, Apple is doing a good job of getting third parties to code applications for Iphone. Why ? because it managed to get developers excited about it... Most developers think however than developing for the Wii is about exciting and fun as having a root canal...

 

I repeat: if you don't know, shut up. Nintendo and Apple had more in common than you think. Both companies are customer oriented and are more worried about creating customer base based products than pushing the state to the art tecnolkogy. Both had hardware and software divisions that are tied one to the other and both follow the blue ocean strategy, and are disruptors in their own field.

Also, you're talking about the iphone but that's more the companies approach than Apple's. Besides, do you think that Nintendo didn't approached companies? of course they did. the difference is that they are not like MS and Sony that pay for exclusivities, they approach them differently.

I am sorry but no matter what argument you want to TWIST, the only ones to blame to bad 3d party support are 3D Parties. You really have to GROW UP and face the reality sonyfanboy.
