Had Nintendo gone with a more powerful system that could get ports from PS720 they could have taken this gen to town. But let's not forget that 3rd party games don't do well on Nintendo consoles! Now, whether or not that has to do with that the 3rd party games that comes to Nintendo consoles are crappy versions or that people only play Nintendo games on Nintendo consoles I don't know, but fact is 3rd party games don't do too well.... |
they dont do well because of the demographic nintendo consoles sell to. lets be honest with our selfs and not joke aruond here, nintendo consoles mostly sell to kids, i dont see why people would take offense of that here but that is the reality. if you were going to buy a console for your kid what would you buy? a nintendo one. are there adults who buy nintendo consoles and enjoy them? yes, but they are a small niche. so when 3rd parties release games targeted at adults they just wont appeal to younger gamers who like games like mario. nintendo knows this, see their adds they always try to have the family having image (look at the recent Need for speed add). and the way they make their games they make it to appeal to kids. the animations, sound, humor and a lot of other stuff is created for kids to like. so parents buy nintendo for their kids, and their kids certainly wont be interested in metal gear or dead space.
