All I'm seeing is justification for Nintendo to go third party so instead of having 100M to sell WiiSports or 14M to sell Mario 3D they would have over 500M customers considering all consoles and PC and perhaps over 3Billion with all smartphones. But I'm certain most of the guys doing this discounts wouldn't agree with Nintendo going 3rd party. Have people in VGC still haven't learn that the correlation between userbase and SW sold is very loose? You can't put a game that sold 5M on a 10M userbase would sell 50M on a 100M userbase. If that happened all Nintendo franchises on Wii would be monstruous sellers when looking at how much they sold on WiiU. The less sales the HW have the more likely to be hardcore dedicated fans and genre followers is to happen. |
That could also be applied to Sony and, to an extent, Microsoft (though now first party games are on PC along with Xbox) as well
