CDP only has a single game this gen. Rockstar is big for sure though. Rocksteady is owned by WB and their games are MTS infested trash now. Valve doesn't make games anymore. Bioware is owned by EA, and their last game sucked. Blizzard merged with Activision years ago and the vast majority of their games are on PC only. For notable games, they just have Overwatch for consoles and that's it. 

Compare that to Bethesda witch has put out... Wolfenstein, ESO, Fallout 4, Doom, Prey, Evil Within 2, Wolfenstein 2, and Dishonored 2. That's just their current gen stuff. They also do remasters of their older games. 

Yeah but so are Nintendos. Every heard about those "Amiibos" ?

 

Want special armour in Zelda BOTW ? Please buy dozens of amiibos. Scan those amiibos and roll the dice what gear you get. Oh you didnt got what you need? No problem, you can roll the dice again in 24 hours? Dont want to wait 24 hours? Well, buy just buy another Amiibo ;)


Want a companion? Just buy the Wolf Link Amiibo. Want to train the wolf link amiibo? Just buy Twilight Princess HD ;)


Vavle still makes games, currently 3 AAA game sin development for the HTC Vive: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-02-10-valve-is-making-three-fully-fledged-vr-games

 

Blizzard also has Diablo 3 on consoles btw.

Paying for a statue isn't the same thing as paying for digital items that don't exist in the real world. Nearly all of the costumes locked behind Amiibos are cosmetic and don't really affect gameplay. Weapons and armor that you get in game are often better than what Amiibos give you. 

Valve's last big multiplatform game was Portal 2. That was seven years ago. VR isn't multiplatform. It's just for PC, or PC and PSVR if we are lucky. Valve might not even bother porting their VR games to PSVR. Valve's VR games might wind up not being any good. Being a good developer of normal games doesn't alway translate into being a good developer of VR games. Just look at how many developers struggled going from 2D to 3D in the N64/PS1 days. 

Diablo 3 launched in 2012. It is a last gen game, that was ported over to the current gen.
