And that's ignoring the problem that third parties have with Nintendo's very philosophy. Nintendo rebuilt the game industry by having manufacturer-led platforms to guarantee quality and drive sales from exclusive killer apps. The PlayStation epoch, that developers enjoy, homogenizes and standardizes and lets the third parties lead the way generally.

Beautifully put. The 3rd and 4th gens were the era of first parties calling the shots, from the 5th gen on, third parties called the shots, wth the exception of the Wii. Frankly, I prefer the dictatorship of first parties to third parties, if SNES/Wii are what happen when manufacturers call the shots, and PS4/Xbone are what happen when the third parties have the power.
