| bdbdbd said: @BMaker: The Kotaku poster said it well. But i don't think that's what LordTheNightKnight was talking about, since he specically said it not being about Wii owners wanting the games (what the Kotaku poster said), but why the 3rd parties aren't putting the games on Wii. The difference is in the perspective used. Third party support (or the lack of it) on N64 and GC is easilly explained by small installbase and in N64 case, high dev costs. GC however had been somewhat cheap to port games to, but the option wasn't widely used. The third party dislike isn't that much about Nintendos quality itself, as it is about Nintendos indepence from third parties. Sony, and especially M$, that have weak first party, depend much more on 3rd parties. Third parties have the least control on Nintendo, that is in the position the third parties would like to be aswell. |
Yeah, they got to play kingmaker the last two gens. Nintendo is denying that this time. You take that kind of power away, it doesn't matter how much money they will lose, they will still resent it.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
