If there are any artistic looking games on either of those systems, they don't sell well at all! Nothing like how Nintendo titles sell on their own platforms. A game like Pikmin would be lucky if it sold 300-400,000 copies on PS4. These systems are 3rd party driven and only mainstream games sell in big numbers, to where even Sony's 1st party games don't outsell the yearly 3rd party games. So how would you expect Nintendo to come in and do on Sony's platform what they themselves can not? Nintendo would be an extremely niche brand on Xbox or Playstation and to think that every core Nintendo fan will go out and buy a Playstation or Xbox to play Nintendo games is reaching. Believe it or not, having more choices in the gaming industry helps to keep each company competitive. This is the whole reason that Sony got overtaken in the electronics segment, because competition brought in cheaper comparable products of similar quality. |
So your argument once again relies on Sony/MS forcing Nintendo to make realistic Mario, despite how stupid of an idea that is, and that then leading to Nintendo fans quitting gaming alltogether.
Why would Nintendo games stop selling just because they switched platforms? You think Mario, one of the biggest IPs on earth would be completely destroyed just because the console it was released on changed name from Nintendo to Playstation or Xbox?
Nintendo wouldn't become a niche brand just because they were on Playstation or Xbox. The demographic and the fanbase Nintendo appealsto wouldn't seize to exist just because the games was on a non-Nintendo console.
