All things considered I've been conditioned to accept little/no third party support or what comes being sub standard or shovelware in most cases. At this point I've accepted I have to buy either a Playstation or XBox to get access to the majority of good games made by worldwide by developers not named Nintendo.
What I *do* miss about Nintendo though is the lack of 2nd party partners like Rare, Silicon Knights, Left Field, Factor 5, etc. that were allowed to make games like GoldenEye and Eternal Darkness and Rogue Squadron, not just farmed out Nintendo character IP that Nintendo is too busy to work on themselves.
I think a lot of the complaints about a lack of content on the Wii U/3DS ... like how perfect would a Banjo-Kazooie or Killer Instinct or even a new Rogue Squadron game be right now on the Wii U?
Letting Retro make 1 game every 3 years doesn't fill the gap (sorry).
I want more than just games from Nintendo's Japanese studios. Platinum Games is a step in the right direction, but I said a year ago on this board, they needed like 3-5 more partnerships like this, and now you can understand why, as we're sitting here dying of things to play waiting for months on end for Pikmin 3 to show up.
