Thats still not enough, Nintendos problem has nothing to do with the amount of games they publish, they probably do more than any plaform holder, they need the top games from multiplatform as well, Nintendo being just for Nintendo published games will never be viable in the long term. It really feels like they have to partner up with anybody they can just to get games on there system, no one seems to make Nintendo games just because they want to as its a viable business model. Something big has to change, they either need another mass market gimmick, which is much easier to say than to acheive, or they need to become much more attractive to other developers. |
Obviously those aren't the only titles releasing in that time frame, just the major system sellers. 3DS gets strong Japanese 3rd party support, no reason to believe they won't be present next-gen as well. The likes of Electronic Arts, Ubisoft, Activision, Warner Bros. won't miss out on a major launch, they will show up will a couple titles each and further support will be determined by how successful their launch games sell. Nintendo has made huge strides in increasing their indie support, I expect that to continue in the coming years and Nintendo still gets all the kid/family friendly titles like Lego, Skylanders, Disney, Just Dance, etc.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
