It not about arrogance. Sony's games are bought by the hardcore, those aren't crazy about mobile gaming, they often complain the PS4 isn't powerful enough for example! Nitendo's IP's however are much more appealing to the crowd playing on mobile devices, just watch their presence in Japan and notice how crazy Japan is about mobile gaming. Also Sony earns much more from sales of third party developers on their consoles, while Nintendo mostly sells their own software making the need for an inhouse platform much smaller.

What? If you sell a lot of your own software, then being able to keep all the profits to yourself is very desirable.


Completely right!I have said this four times in other threads,since yesterday!I don't understand why some don't think that!Selling your own software to your own hardware is a great advantage,you don't have to share the money!

As I have written before,if for instance nintendo goes mobile it will need to sell 760m apps at 5$ on app store yearly to match the money it gets from hardware and apple gets the 30% of the money that the apps are making!Nintendo makes more money than activision,ubisoft etc because it has hardware and also sells its software on its own hardware...
