In the spirit of downplaying, anyone else notice Kinect seems to be a first party powerhouse but 3rd party wasteland sales wise?  All the big sellers (Kinect Sports, Dance Central, Kinectimals) are all published by Microsoft basically... it's even more lopsidedly 1st party than Wii launch was I think?

Will there be any acknowledgement of this in the industry or will "dominant 1st party" remain a Nintendo only phenomenon for pundits / detractors?


Dance Central is made by Harmonix......not first party.  Published by MS but not developed by them.

Also its the same situation as the Wii when 3rd parties develop compelling software it will sell but at the moment its mostly shovelware from the 3rd party stuff. The 1st party is whats mosty shining through at the moment.
