Real reason big budget 3rd party games are not on Nintendo systems

1. The hardware is essentially an entire generation behind.
2. The third-party games generally don't sell well to what is ultimately an audience of two bases: Casuals and Nintendo-only players
3. Nintendo's third-party relations are weak, and factors #1 and #2 would make good third-party relations mostly pointless anyway.
4. They definitely do have multiple cases of paying third-parties for games, such as Monster Hunter. Furthermore, they have a history of hiring second-parties, and that trend is actually increasing nowadays.

Exactly. Nintendo will pay for third party help, but they will not outbid Sony and Microsoft. LOL Its pathetic that they even act like they're above it.
