| twilight_link said: @zumnupy10:they flushed the market with numerous IP's and only 3 remain competitive, two of them heavily bundled (GT and Uncharted), LBP1 was 5M seller, LBP2 sells around 2M, LBPVita sells horrible, LBP Karting same horrible sales (less than 1/10 of original) this is by any definition hardly relevant franchise.
"I don't understand this idea people have, that a game has to sell better just because it is made by a first-party studio." extremely important, success of 1st party IP's are best bet, if 3rd parties terminate support to your platform, you have something to sell to your audience, this is the only reason Nintendo remain alive |
All companies flush the market with new Ip in the beggining of a new generation. In the end only a few games achieve success. Saying that GT and Uncharted sold well because were heavily bundled is bullshit imo.
Perhaps the reason why Sony and MS don't need all their First-party games to be successful, is because they know Third-parties won't abandon them.
