Besides, would be hipocrisy, since the Bayonetta 2 deal is exactly the the same(even worse since its not timed exclusivity).


Except its not the same...We know Bayo 2 wouldn't have been made without NIntendo stepping in, but would you honestly believe that MS saved Rise of the Tomb Raider? If MS hadn't stepped in, the game would have likely still been made except it would have been multiplatform. Theres a difference between buying a game and buying exclusivity (although of course we can't know the exact details of this deal)

And you my friend are not part of the problem, but us Nintendo fans as a group, I really hate generalizations but for the publishers we are not zippy and flagstaad the buddies who bought the game, we are part of those gamers that don't really care about our games. Hell I have sold 11 copies of Deus Ex among the buddies from the facebook group, but those are exceptions and not the rule, we are still less than 50k in total and that makes porting any game a financial risk, even if the numbers mentioned by Ubisoft of 1.3 million to port 360 games means selling only 65k units to recover the investment and around 80k make a profit, it is at the moment a risk and they don't want to take it.

First of all, Deux Ex (Wii U) was sent out to die by SE's stupidity. Second of all, it is third parties fear of taking that minimal risk that prevents there from being three healthy platforms for 3rd party games, which would benefit everyone in the industry. While of course there is some consumer fault, you can't blame Nintendo fans for being skeptical of 3rd party games when we have gotten the short end of the stick repeatedly.
