No, Nintendo's kinda unique in the following that they have with the Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, DK, etc. brands, these are franchises that have been supported for 30+ years now.

PS has a lot of fans, but I don't think they have as many "fanatics", the Playstation is more of a brand outlet to provide third party content. 1st/2nd party stuff is kinda like a bonus, but on Nintendo machines they very much define the platforms entirely.

This is pretty much what I wanted to post.

Sony's first party are a bonus that comes with the 3rd party games, while Nintendo's first party define their platform, hence the "people buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games" and "3rd party games don't sell on Nintendo consoles" beliefs.
