| Soundwave said: Unfortunately it's more of a demographic issue, Sony and Microsoft have really just eaten up the entire sports demographic, and Nintendo is really not a big player in that, and this isn't anything new, from the GameCube onwards Nintendo sports games have sold very poorly compared to their PS/XBox cousins. If anyone is to blame it's really Microsoft. Before the XBox, sports games used to sell OK/decent on Nintendo platforms, but since XBox came into the market, it just pushed Nintendo consoles completely out of this demographic. |
That's why EA's exclusive sports deals are an issue. We can't even say "Nintendo should make their own, better, sports sims" because EA has exclusive rights to almost all the names.
