Why would Nintendo go 3rd party now? It doesn't make sense. As soon as the cost for producing the Wii U comes down, the 3DS will start to make money for Nintendo, and simply not just off putting the losses of the WIi U. Sure, they won't earn as much money as they did during the DS/Wii era, but they'll do good enough to make a come back next gen.
Going third party would mean: paying royalties to the other console makers, thus losing out on money. And the PS4/X1 crowed doesn't seem to be too eager to play Nintendo games; how much did LBP sell? Or LBP Karting/Playstation All-STar? Not even the Jak and Daxter series, by everybodys favorites Naughty Dog, did well compared to Nintendo's games. And that was on the PS3 AND PS2 (which had a user base of 150+m), which arguably has a more diverse library than the X360. Therefore we have to ask ourselves, is there a big enough crowed on these consoles (PS4/X1) to earn back the royalties Nintendo is paying Sony/MS? Probably not, going by other games similar to those Nintendo is making.
This is hard facts backed up with sales of historically similar games to those of Nintendo. This tells us that Nintendo probably wouldn't do as well on these consoles as some would wish they did. Would the Nintendo faithful follow Nintendo to other platforms? Maybe, but we can't be certain about that. They might just as well go to the 3DS for their Nintendo fix.
Nintendo would be far better off just doing handheld games for the rest of the generation, while working on next gen console(s).
I would LOVE to hear some GOOD counter arguments to this. Come at me bro, and I'll serve you crow. |
they should make ONE Mariogame for ps4/xbone.
