"You think these companies have an endless supply of funds they could throw around?"

If they didn't have the funds to support the HD systems and the Wii... that explains their financial problems this generation.

But refusing to try based on what they already spent is part of the sunken cost fallacy (and no, that isn't around just because a certain blogger wrote about it).

"3rd parties are evil, they hate Ninty"

No, I'm "third parties, Sony, Microsoft, and even now Nintendo, are full of the need to show off, and they need to fucking stop, as history has shown games sell best when the players show off". Their problems with the Wii are based on that, but it doesn't make that attitude any less asinine.

So where the hell were they going to get the funds AFTER they made their stuff for the HDs and PCs??? Maybe they didnt refuse, maybe some of them couldnt and Nintendo didnt help by making a system that didnt gel with what the 3rd parties were making, They know this which is why they are doing what they are doing with the Wii U now.And i have no idea how the hell players show off. If these companies didnt "show off" how the hell would they get people excited to bu their crap???
