Two different things. I can love 3rd-party-games and hate they don't come to Nintendo and still think they're unneeded for success of the device.

Already answered that. Based not only on answer here but different threads.

Then again, I do tend to interface with like-minded Nintendo fans who tend to play more Japanese third-party games (JRPGs and SRPGs, on my part) than the rest of the fanbase.

*glares at 3DS shelf which has more Atlus than Nintendo games*

Well, I didn't say all Nintendo fans don't want, like or speak bad of 3rd parties, but that on this forum there are a lot who behave just like that.

Given the events of 2017, I think it's more than fair to be skeptical of AAA third-party games. Titles like Destiny 2, Shadow of War, Call of Duty: WWII, and Battlefront 2 don't exactly inspire confidence.

Right now, Nintendo fans who look down on those types of games, and the shoddy design decisions and cynical business practices therein, are probably on the right side of history. If anything, I think Sony and Microsoft fans are headed toward a reckoning. They'll have to decide whether AAA third-party games, which keep their favorite platforms afloat, are worth lionizing.
