HappySqurriel said: Nintendo makes a lot of profit off the Wii because they make good games in established franchises with solid marketing ... Unless you're claiming that third party publishers can't do this, I don't see why there is a big distinction between Nintendo and third party publishers. |
When Nintendo advertise they advertise to sell both a system as well as a game. There is a completely different risk/reward structure for them when they consider advertising expenditure vs the expenditure of a third party publisher.
Tease.
