Third party support never left the building. Nintendo never let them in by never listening to their demands for specs in 2011, thus  the outcome today. Third party was more than happy to port their last gen games but next gen was out of the question and there is no reason after trying to reason with Nintendo that they should.

Third party made lazy, incompetent attempts that failed to live up to the standards Nintendo gamers are used to, so they didn't sell, so they stopped.


Nintendo is lucky to have recieved what they did finally listening to devs at the tail end of a generation. Has everyone ever thought about that. NIntendo finally dropped the Wii and made themselves credible tech wise at the end of a generation with new console for a new generation. Thats ass backwards. Both screwed up.

Third party games don't sell on Nintendo because Nintendo conditioned gamers not to come to Nintendo. Sega scared off third party by being erratic in their day and showing improper internal politics and Nintendo refused to listen when it came to tech requirements from third party. Nintendo lost so many devs when the PS1 made its debut just because of CD's. The very format they hired Sony to create. Then they whined like babies that they were afraid of piracy when they knew what the in thing was. Gamecube didn't help either. They allowed Sony to dominate without a struggle because if they don't get what they want then they'll be babies about it. Talented....but still babies.
