Why is "Nintendo" used as a qualifier for games?

They shouldn't. But I've never seen anyone refer to 3rd party games on PS/XB as Sony or Microsoft games, so why should 3rd party games on Nintendo consoles be called Nintendo games?

They shouldnt. Thats the point. Nintendo consoles arent just for Nintendo games...

True, but what support they have outside of Nintendo pales in comparison to the support that the PS/Xbox gets. Meaning saying Nintendo consoles are good for people that like Nintendo games is still true. If you like them you get them and some other stuff on Nintendo consoles, but if you don't like them the other stuff alone isn't worth it.

Well they have more third party exclusives(not counting indies) than the XB1 and PS4 combined, so...
