Does it start with the gamers, or the games themselves? If the gamers don't buy is it the publishers fault? If the games are bad, is it the fans fault?
I admit I am thinking about this question with the switch looming and I'd like some thoughts on the matter. |
It started with Nintendo.
They choose not to use CDs, back when disc space was a issue.
As time went on, and it just became normal that nintendo systems lacked 3rd party, most users adopted a "screw them" mentality, and just support nintendo games. Often a 2nd to own console, where you dont buy 3rd party on it.
Now its no longer Nintendo at fault, its the conditioned consumers too.
The only way out of the hole, would be to do a traditional console, like a PS4 that was on the same level as the then current PS/XB, and not be released 4years or so after them.
