consider activision releasing the next CoD on the NX
1. activision will not put the game on NX console if they can't charge $60
2. activision will not put the game on NX console if nintendo requires to also run on NX handheld with no monetary incentive to make two versions of the game for the price of one.

so this either means:
1. nintendo follows sony's lead on only make cross-buy a thing when it makes sense for the title and not a requirement the publisher must adhere to.
2. nintendo follows nintendo's lead and has no 3rd party support.

or 3. Nintendo follows Nintendo's lead and the NX is actually two seperate platforms where publishers can develop for whatever platform the like knowing the cost of supporting the second platform is lower than it was between the Wii U and 3DS, but if they do choose to do so, can publish it for that seperate platform for a seperate price and make more money.



that's option 1.

vita has some exclusive games.

ps3/ps4 has some exclusive games.

vita and ps3/4 have some straight ports that are cross buy

vita and ps3/4 have some high/low graphics ports custom to each system that are seperate purchases.

 

geez,. that sounds a lot like NX huh?



You're right that I did misunderstand your first point.

You and I are on the same page. This is what I believe Nintendo will do. But I don't think they're going to take premier titles like Zelda, and make them cross-buy or give away the game on one platform for free.
