Nintendo is stuck in a hole.  They can continue to dominate the market with just the profits from their first party line up.  But they'll never have the full market penetration of a PS2 or SNES if they don't appeal to third parties.  This is why I think they'll be releasing a more graphics focused console (like the GameCube) in 2012.


So, you want Nintendo to do what they did with GC and fail again? WTF

The difference is, Nintendo made the GameCube to specifically try to appeal to third parties, at a time when the N64 had already pushed them away and the PS2 was destined to get 95% of al third party support.

At this time, Nintendo is virtually half the market just themselves and the Wii was by far the most successful system, even without third parties.  If they chose this time to actually appeal to this parties and make a graphically powerful system, it would work.  Unlike on the GameCube.


3rd party will do the same to Nintendo even now with a next gen consule even if they come out with the most powerfull platform ever.  going after 3rd party is the mistake its already done and may be doing again.

Nintendo needs to expand 1st party software capacity.   Its the Company's strenght and its there bigest advantage over the 2 others.

If they want to Win this 3 way War. they need to double there 1st party output. maybe even more.

Id floore a good part of the nintendo Wii money into opening new studio's and expanding the ones already in place, and Id continue until, I could produce 1 Qualaty game per every month there is in a year.

Then id inforce high qualaty on everything any 3rd party publish on my system.
