Sega was infinitely poorer than Nintendo and in deep financial troubles, and that never stopped them from releasing more games of their own for their own systems, and new, fresh IPs too than Nintendo's ever done for any of theirs.


Ummmmm.......what?

 

A) Sega HAD to make a lot of games, because they had a lot less 3rd party support.

 

B) What the hell are you talking about? Nintendo themselves had LESS development teams than they do now, back in the NES and SNES eras, yet still put out dozens of games for each console. As a matter of fact, for the NES they published around 40 games on that one system. They published over 30 titles for the SNES. Close to 40 for N64. Over 30 for GC. Just over 50 titles for Wii.

 

See the trend there? And that is not counting the enormous amount of portable games they've been publishing since the original Game Boy.

 

 

So yes, Sega made a good deal of games. But so has Nintendo, always. There is literally no such thing as "Sega made way more games for their own console than Nintendo ever has". In fact that statement, I'm sorry, is complete BS.
