Imagine if they made a console that got good/great 3rd party support AND had their 1st party games... Sony and MS would go out of business ;P And as for Nintendo going 3rd party... That's such a bad idea I don't even know where to begin describing how bad it is. I'll say this: 3rd party games don't sell on Nintendo console because of their games (apparently). Noe, imagine Nintendo games on any other console. This would mean that no one would buy any games other than Nintendo's and 1st party games wouldn't sell at all. So there's no room for a 3rd party Nintendo since no one else would be able to sell any games at all. THAT'S the next video game crash!! |
Third party games don't sell on Nintendo consoles because they are bad ports or they are just thrown there for a quick cash. Of course in comparison Nintendo games are way better because they take their time to develop for their platform. Thirs parties take their time and invest more on Xbox and PS because they can both support the same engines and control scheme. The same happens with Kinect, too different to allow too much budget on it so a lot of shovleware are made for it.
Unless both PS4 and 720 sport a tablet like controller and a not too powerful hardware compared to WiiU, the same thing will happen again. Unreal Engine 4 will shine on both of them but will be mediocre at best on Wii U... shoddy ports all over again? Nintendo games will sell well but not third's.
