Nintendo's first party games significantly outsell the 3rd party ones, as is the case with the Saturn and the Dreamcast. In a sense their is a "conflict of interests" since the first party who cannot survive if they run a deficit must not be outperformed by the 3rd party. Microsoft has gotten their shit together this generation by expanding their portfolio beyond FPS's and PC ports, so they could be a potentially benevolent "ruler" this generation. The PS1 generation would not have been as smooth if Sega would have been in charge. |
It would have been even worse if Nintendo was in charge.
