On the flip side, SaviorX made a few good points. You complainers did kinda overreact to some things.
(This is for the complainers)
For starters, everybody talked about the fact that there weren't any big franchise titles besides Mario and Pikmin. Nintendo only has so many developers, and most of those developers launched a game last year. The only dev they had that should've been ready to unveil that didn't was Retro. If they didn't show Star Fox/Metroid/DK/F-Zero this year, than they're not in development. It's as simple as that. Nintendo ALREADY outsources as much stuff as it can, and we know how small they are compared to the other two. They tried (and failed) to show off third party support, because that's what the hardcore wants. As I said in an earlier post, they have to have more in development, and we won't know until later.
Now talking about third parties. All Nintendo needs to do to get the hardcore, is do what MS did in the 360's first year. Secure the big "next gen" games as timed exclusives so when Sony and Microsoft reveal their plans for the next generation, Nintendo won't miss out on any of the groundbreaking titles that you know will be on Orbis/Durango. Watch_Dog is a start. Dead or Alive, Bioshock, Sonic 06, and F.E.A.R. ,all hyped up "next gen" games back in 05, were released on the 360 first, and gamers went where the games were.
