Seece is correct. Sony and Microsoft both chase down third parties to get games and consoles where as Nintendo don't. Nintendo also have historically (Gamecube) not wanted multi-platform games because they didn't want their console to look like the same experience as any other.

That link is a really good insight into Nintendo's mindset and I honestly don't think they've learnt anything. Pretty much all of their problems are their own policies biting them in the butt. |
Except you're wrong. Your link is irrelevant because we have information that contradicts what you stated. No one even needs to read the link to know that. All they have to know is that Nintendo has been paying to publish not only 3rd party games in the west, but also reached out and completely revived and funded Bayonetta 2, a 3rd party game that was previously only available on PS3 and 360. It's not even JUST Bayonetta 2, but Devil's Third as well. No doubt they're doing more than just this, and they have lightened up a LOT in terms of how they handle indie devs and the sort. All of this information 100% contradicts the statement that Nintendo doesn't chase down 3rd parties to get games, and that Nintendo hasn't "learnt anything." You need to actually research before you go talking about something you essentially know very little about.

Except those are exclusive deals they made and paid for- which are great but that is hardly indicative of how well they work with 3rd party devs- it is very obvious to anyone who is willing and able to take an objective look at the issue- the proof that Nintendo IS the primary if not only issue re lack of 3rs party support - when business after business either cuts support or. Never bothers in the 1st place- that is a Nintendo issue and Nintendo problem - FYI the article In the link by Emily Rogers is an excellent article and very much gives I site into Nintendo s culture and philosophy- I m sure some things have changed since then but the basic premise seems to still be in place today
