Really? Nintendo won their case but they were involved in shady tactics to stay ahead of the competition before the Playstation arrived.

According to this, NES had shipped a whopping 200,000 units in North America by August 1986 or around the time Atari 7800 & Sega Master System released. If 3rd parties really felt they were being mistreated than they could have easily developed games for those consoles instead, it's not like NES was some huge force when they released.
