The only difference between third parties then and now is that the lot of them were not under Nintendos thumb because of lack of competition giving them a way out. Today they can choose who they work with based on demand, console power, etc. There are many more factors these days.

Last time I checked, GC had the power, and it still didn't have hot support.

But yes, you're right, there's not high demand for many of the kind of games 3rd parties make these days on Nintendo's consoles.
