release high quality software.


Nintendo has been releasing high quality software for 30 years now. High quality first party games are obviously not the only thing required for a system to have success. Sega for that matter also released tremendously high quality games for the Sega Master System, Sega Saturn, and Sega Dreamcast too. 

I'm curious, when did we start talking about the past 30 years? nintendo hasn't released enough high quality software for wii u yet. and I didn't say it was supposed to be first party only.


Or maybe the "1st/2nd party studios trying to carry a system on their own" formula simply doesn't work very well. 

The N64, GameCube, Dreamcast, Saturn, Sega Master System, Wii, and Wii U have tried this formula, and the Wii is the only one that's really been tremendously successful and that was largely due to a controller gimmick that hit the jackpot which can't be repeated. 

People by and large don't want to buy a system just for a handful of good games per year.
