but as far as the exclusives go, its business. Without those Nintendo consoles would be nothing. I guess that frustration is what led you to write this opinated nonsense and try to hide it under the format of a professional article.

Your just gonna have to learn to deal with it. Nintendo strategy passes in great part by differentiating their products in the market through an exclusive brand offering. There is nothing wrong with that.

First, exclusives are a bad thing for any gamer that can't afford all the systems. Second, assuming you're right, why am I not frustrated with Sony and Microsoft? Third, the OP covers far more topics than just exclusives. Fourth, the way to talk to me shows anger towards my "opinions". If their just opinions, why don't you respect them?

They dont put their fate on other companies  hands and make the system that allows them to carry on their strategy. Those that want to join in, great. Those that dont, so be it.

Should Nintendo try to make more encopassing systems t? Why? It does not help their strategy. They need to aim at consumer needs, not to be misinterpreted  with your  personal  needs. If theres sales third parties will jump on board naturally.

Making systems for all developers benefits everybody: devs make more money because they launch the games on more consoles, gamers have more titles on their platform, the console sells more because it appeals to a larger audience, etc.

Being egocentric has the opposite effect. If they don't want to put their fate on other companies, that's fine, they will end up being alone...as it is happening more and more on each generation.
