That's a weird way to look at this, MS and Sony are not exclusively game companies, so why would they just have dozens of in-house game studios from the start? They have to get those studios from somewhere and I don't see what's wrong about buying them, especially if you have great relations with the studios anyhow. Also it's not like Nintendo has never made any acquisitions of studios, what about Rare for example? |
Why is it that no matter how intelligent people are, they simply can't differentiate between the words "most" and "all?" And to answer your question directly, Nintendo use to be a card maker. They decided to dedicate themselves at some point to the craft of game maker. That's something we should all appreciate, even if we don't like their games anymore. They're sort of like the last of the Mohecans imo.
But I'm not bashing Sony or MS. My post was more to show respect for Nintendo for their way of developing things in house etc. It's pretty special these days.
