People are complaining about the mandatory Nintendo hardware purchase.

Nintendo would be far better off as a developer, not having to worry about hardware specs, just games.


Fuck that.

They'd be hindered.

 

OT:

Nintendo is only rivaled by EA as far as quantity of titles and even there Nintendo delivers more (last time I checked).

Nintendo also switches places with EA all the time as the publisher who sells the most titles (total sum, not specific IPs).

All doing that on only two or maybe three platforms at at time while EA (and others) have all consoles plus PC.

Nintendo is prime example of the higher level of quality you can have when the hardware maker is the software maker. They do this better than anyone of any market, including Apple.


I wholeheartedly agree. Nintendo is the only company that can sell me hardware with only what they make. I don't want them making games for anyone else. To me, the idea of Nintendo paying Sony, or Microsoft, to make games for them is laughable. They make the best software for their system, and if people want to play them, buy the console, simple as that. It makes the perfect secondary system, primary handheld.
