2). Only Nintendo games sell on Nintendo consoles.

While folks may have a point in Japan, the same can't be said for the U.S. and Europe:


I think a better comparison here would be the average number of copies of each. While around 50% of all game sales for the Wii are not 1st party, the volume of titles are vastly different.

For example, in Nintendo come out with 3 games, and sell 9 million copies, that’s 3 million a game. If 3rd party manufacturers come out with 60 games in that same timeframe, and sell 9 million, that’s 150,000 a game.

I have no idea what those averages are, but I think that’s what people are talking about then they bring up this point.


 So if Nintendo releases Super Smash Bros Brawl, Mario Kart Wii, and WiiFit and sells 9 million copies, averaging 3 million a game and Data Design Interactive releases 60 titles in the same time frame, selling up to 9 million copies, people will still make this point?
