Why don't you support your beloved Nintendo?

Well, I see this thread is another: "stupid and evil Nintendo-fans don't buy godly 3rd-party". Well, let's take a look. You claim AC and COD are "the 2 most popular/biggest franchises this gen". OK, let's compare with another 3rd-party-franchise - Just Dance.

AC I (X360): 5.26M
AC I (PS3): 4.52M
AC II (PS3): 5.34M
AC II (X360): 5.07M
AC III (PS3): 4.66M
AC III (X360): 4.14M

Call of Duty is much bigger (>10M per title), but it is also that much, that I don't look into the sales detailed.

Just Dance (Wii): 6.95M
Just Dance 2 (Wii): 9.38M
Just Dance 3 (Wii): 9.77M
Just Dance 4 (Wii): 5.19M

 You see Just Dance is a smaller franchise than COD but bigger than AC and is fully supported by Nintendo-fans. So the assumption to your thread is already wrong: Nintendo-faans support third-party. The 3rd-party only has to care about the Nintendo-fans.

And just for laughs:
Just Dance 4 (X360): 0.84M
Just dance 4 (PS3): 0.24M
Am I now allowed to assume, that Sony- and MS-fans don't support 3rd-parties?

Why would Sony and MS fans buy mediocre 3rd party games like just dance? And no, AC is bigger than JD. Dont know how you came to the opposite conclusion when every mainline ac sells 10m+ and the others have sold 8-10 or so 

If you count the PS3-version and the X360-version together (and I agree that is fair) only ACII sold more than 10M - and that barely. ACI sold the same as JD2 and JD3, ACIII so far less (but JD4 may get more sales over time too and is also multiplat, so these version could be added too). So basically JD and AC are franchises of the same size. I agree COD is bigger. But my point stands, the Wii-owners supported a third-party franchise as big as AC, that was named of the OP as very popular (and I agree on that). So if 3rd-parties really try they get sales on Nintendo-platforms. So why do Sony-fans always whine about bad sales of third-parties on Nintendo-platforms (why they care about it in the first place? And don't try to deny, that you and Deyon are Sony-fans) as this is not even true. Just Dance proffs that 3rd-party games sell on Nintendo-platforms. So the OP is starting from wrong assumptions.
