Shouldn't Platinum Games be listed under Nintendo? They are making wonderful 101 and bayo2 exclusively for the Wii U...

Platinum Games makes third party titles for everyone. Yes, they are responsible for a second party sequel of Bayonetta, but that still belongs to Platinum. Nintendo just paid for that games development to bring the niche crowd over to their ball court.

I thought that since he's listing other 3rd party developers PG would of been up there as well, but if he's only listing 3rd parties that is developing 1st party titles, then I understand why it isn't

Nintendo needs Platinum because they will need Japan when Microsoft and Sony share the bulk of the western devs and Sony and Japan go in a tug of war for Japanese support to their consoles.
