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. |
Nintendo tried to chase third party but it was little too late because they created a less than powerful console when in 2011 devs were saying consoles need to be "This powerful" and Nintendo still launched the Wii U. Nintendo only does what they want to do and dont think about anything outside of themselves. This is why Nintendo hasnt had a decently populated console with a variety of gamers since the SNES and even then Nintendo had third parties under their thumb still not listening, but at least they were the market leader and were technilogically capable for their time. Epic doesnt even want Nintendo using Unreal 4 because Nintendo trying to use it for "next gen" titles is a joke. Sounds like a douche right? Well he's right. They could always use Unreal 4 but whats the point if no one is consuming third party on your platform and Unreal 4 is mostly consumed by companies that make multiplats?
