Nintendo Enthusiats: No Mr. Adelman, You’re Wrong About Nintendo’s Third-Party Situation

What Nintendo should do is reach out into the "blue ocean" of third parties. There are plenty of mobile, indie, and low-end PC developers who would kill to reach an audience willing to pay $30-$60 for a game. Nintendo should have folks like Dan Adelman trolling Steam, the App Store, and the Play Store, find anything that's good and hasn't come to XB or PS yet, and give those developers minor support to port it to, well, not Wii U and 3DS (this is a strategy for next gen).

Don't bother fighting for the AAA multiplats, that ship has sailed, but there's a vast new wave of talent that's choking in an overcrowded sea of budget titles, who would be quite willing to sell the same game (or a minorly enhanced version of the same game) to an audience willing to pay 5 to 30x as much for the content.

Any games you have in mind, because I'm stuggling to think of anything of enough worth to actually matter...I mean, the indie market really isn't Nintendos problem right now and they actually have pretty good support from a lot of really interesting indie games

See, i don't follow any of that field.

"Citizens of Earth" is a good example, though. That feels like it could have been a full-price game with a few changes. Things like that.
