"Sony and Microsoft rely on third parties to create an install base with their consoles because both companies lack the first party studio strength to perform it themselves. In other words, relying on third party software to drive install base is considered ‘normal’ and ‘the future’. Nintendo, like Sega and Atari and Hudson, rely on first party software to drive the install base. Therefore, it is ‘concerning’, ‘problematic’ and eventually ‘doomed’."
that's Bull shit, Sony has a very strong 1st party studio, which produce quality games, but at the end of the day console manufactures have to have a good balance of both 1st and 3rd party, either extreme is problematic more so if the console heavily relies on 1st party, after all 3rd party is very important since their are more studios, which means more games, which means a library of great games.
In my opinion the wii is doomed because its hook was the motion controls which has attracted the casual market, but this very market is flaky and looks for the new trendy gadget, and apple is the king at this, once the casual market have their eyes set on the next trendy thing, they stop buy what is considered old, in this case it'll be the wii, and simply move on, this has always been the risk, and this is the reason Nintendo is milking it for all its worth, the motion plus is solely targeted at the hardcore, cuz once the casuals move on it'll be the hardcore keeping them afloat.
