Why are some Nintendo fans so opposed to going third party?

Well then I'd have to buy Sony consoles, which tend to cost more.

For instance, if I had instead bought a Vita when I bought my 3DS, I would have spent $80 more on hardware -- that's two full retail games. I haven't bought a Wii U yet, but of course at the moment the PS4 costs $100 more than the Wii U.

Hell, I bet I spent less than $600 on my launch Wii and all of the Wii games I own together.

But you'd be getting your money's worth with power and 3rd party support.

How much of that extra 3rd-party support could I afford after paying hundreds of dollars more for the console?

Let me tell you what 3DS retail games I own right now: Kid Icarus Uprising, Pokemon Y, Zelda Link Between Worlds, Monster Hunter 3G, and Shin Megami Tensei IV. The Vita cost $80 more than the 3DS when I bought mine, the cost of two 3DS games. Guess which two of the aforementioned games I would axe from my collection, if I had to make such a choice before even buying them?
