The simple concept of having to suck up to 3rd parties is, just philosophically, wrong. To have to pay 3rd parties to play on your platform, there's a problem. That's a problem MS and Sony feed. Nintendo doesn't play like that and never will. So, for 3rd parties to come back to Nintendo, that business model will have to implode first, sadly. |
No one is sucking up to third parties its just smart business if you want to be known as the console with everything. If you're a selfish brand like Nintendo is that only sees their vision for their product rather than their product being a vessel for many visions featuring their first party, then its easy to see why they are in the position they are in. Lets see where pandering to the casuals takes them...oh wait...we already did and they are selling less than current gen consoles because they are already giving you the same crap. Nintendo is out of touch with being a universal source. They ran third parties with an iron fist. No partner should be treated that way.
