| S.T.A.G.E. said: The Wii U is in a situation that could've been helped. Have a better relationship with third parties. A massive portion of audiences to consoles buy third party and Nintendo because of their bad relationships have trained their community not to depend on them for third party. Sony was naturally adept at being naturally dominant in the industry by having full use and harmony of all parties involved. Their relationships for the most part were squeaky clean. |
I don't disagree, but that time for helping was a year ago. Not now, when Smash released.
What Nintendo can do now is not chase third party and the unsustainable AAA market, that's a lost cause for this gen at the very least, what they should do is chase and form good channels with "third party" indies and market them. They exist, they make good games, and they can produce hits like Shovel Knight.
