Nintendo really fucked over third parties during the NES times, with all of their strict rules to ensure that their own games would perform better.

Third parties were actually prospering because of Nintendo's rules. The good ones had a much easier time to make a name for themselves, because the bad ones weren't allowed to flood the market with an endless amount of software. The good ones were also featured in the official Nintendo Power magazine which acted partly as advertisement, partly as game guide. At one point Nintendo Power even offered a free copy of Dragon Warrior (a.k.a. Dragon Quest) as sign-up bonus for a subscription.

You are trying to troll me again, right?

Now I've got you paranoid
