Nintendo has already made a ZombiU bundle.......  -_-


OP already corrected me on that. It is funny, I was going to propose this, Nintendo bundling mature games, in order to change their image with gamers but it seems that doesn't work either.

Nintendo's image with the "hardcore" gamers will always be molded by game industry propaganda.

So the game industry is puposely biased against Nintendo. Why? What do they get with this?

The history of Trip Hawkins ans EA Games is a great example. During Nintendo's (and console gaming's) golden age, douchebags like Trip Hawkins couldn't handle the degree of power that Nintendo had in the console market. The people that flooded the Atari with crap and believed that home computers were the future of gaming were all pissed. And that has lived on.

Also, Sony and MS are more reliant on third party games companies than Nintendo, so the environment in which Nintendo loses and the others win is strategically important to the non-hardware making companies of the game industry, because then they have greater power over the hardware makers. The Xbox One is the culmination of this.

There is a reason you rarely hear most random forum users to call for Nintendo to expand their own development capacity or to buy more studios. No matter what the discussion is, it's always "third parties are the end all be all", not "games are eveything" for some reason, it has to be third party games. And that is exactly what publishers want both the gamers, and the hardware makers to believe.

Could you please provide links that confirm the following information:

- Trip doing whatever he did in response to the "power" of Nintendo.

You bring the EA example, what else can you mention that could make the industry biased against Nintendo? EA is not the whole industry. Please, things that show that they are purposely biased, not just expresing their feelings on Nintendo.

Sony is reliant in third parties for what in specific? They have many exclusives and they sell very well, not comparable to the ones from Nintendo for the Wii but that is an exception Nintendo themselves will have difficulty to repeat. Even Micro seems to be stepping up their game, we will see. Third parties are an advantage, everyone wants them including Nintendo.

I didn't get the last paragraph, the things in quotes. I recall reading comments about people wanting Nintendo to expand development in order to provide more games due to the drought in games currently in the WIiU.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:
