Nintendo still had hits in the NES and SNES years, and third parties STILL had plenty of hits. Street Fighter II was not only Capcom's biggest selling game ever on the SNES (in terms of copies sold, not quarters put in), but it was also a killer app for the system.
So it's still third parties making the games not sell themselves.
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
