This notion was already on its way out when Ocarina of Time 3D became a multimillion seller. It was exposed as being nothing more than the political correct way to explain why Nintendo beat Sony. It really has nothing to do with whether games are perceived as home console or handheld games, it's a simple question of game quality.

Nintendo makes much better games than Sony and third parties, that's all there is to it.

A lot of game developers rely on production values to sell their games. If the "wow" from production values gets removed (which happens when a game is made for a portable console), then there's commonly not much of a selling point left. The result is that mediocrity gets recognized as mediocrity which stands in stark contrast to the hype-driven home console software market. It is not coincidence that AAA third parties have a hard time being successful on portable consoles.

Every time I read one of your posts, I always detect a heavy sarcasm. Posts like these, I tell ya.
