So we've established that everyone has low expectations for third parties. Good.

I never said that.

You said that third parties can't be responsible for building a market. Ergo, third parties aren't responsible for leadership or outside-the-box thinking. Thus, low expectations.

Building a shooter market.
Nintendo built a fitness market and 3rd parties followed. Nintendo built a party games market and 3rd parties followed. Nintendo built a platformers market, 3rd parties followed.
Nintendo doesn't seem to want to build a 1st person or 3rd person market, so why would 3rd parties do it for them? Especially if they have enough of a market to work with already on PS3, 360 and PC?
Until Nintendo puts in the work as well to built that market, them don't expect to see them until the WiiU userbase grows.

I would argue that Sony and Microsoft didn't build a shooter market. Argueably you could argue that 360 expanded it with Halo.
Playstation was just popular when third parties made the shooter market what it is today... and Nintendo... was the N64. It had goldeneye, and perfect dark but... that's about it.
The only market I could see you argueing Sony made was the racer market... but that's still a market they mostly dominate.

What I was saying was that Sony put forth an effort to establish a shooter base from the get go by creating them while Nintendo isn't. MS also makes them while paying out for others.
iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
