What about No More Heros? Looks interesting to me. Mad World also sold like 500k did it not?

Also I know Nintendo published XenoBlade, and is publishing The Last Story, but since they are Square Enix and Mistwalker developed respectivly, do they count as third party?

While they may look interesting to some, neither No More Heroes nor Madworld were big budget as far as development budget. Xenoblade is a Monolith game, not SE, and Monolith are owned by Nintendo. Last Story was comissioned (and paid for) by Nintendo, so again can't be considered third party.

What about?

World of Goo?

lol

Wait does Rock Band, Guitar Hero, Okami, Zack & Wiki or Tatsunoko vs. Capcom count?

I also don't get how Red Steel is considered AAA, but No More Hero's isn't. Isn't the budget behind those two games similar? Just because Red Steel was a launch title doesn't automatically make it AAA, it was just the best available at the time.

Wow, this is sad, but it shows how freaken awesome Nintendo is supporting their console so well. They hold that japanese mentality where they will not let themselves be overtaken by the much larger and wealthier companies.....not like SEGA.

Just wish they didn't switch Pikmin 3 to Wii U and that Nintendo finally announced those two JRPGs for release in Americas.
