What I'm missing in this thread is alternative ways for Nintendo to be just as profitable as a third party publisher. Every is simply saying either "yes", and just leave it at that. How would they be as profitable? Sure, they could make a deal and be exclusive to a certain console if they didn't have to pay royalties, but that would mean that they would miss out sales on the OTHER console. It's things like this that's missing in this discussion right now. |
I would think Nintendo would probably have enough clout to dictate to both companies the conditions in which their games and revenue would be handled. It would be a unique situation to say the least. For them to stay exclusive to one console would defeat the purpose of going third party in the first place.
"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."
