And it's a testament to how terrible the AAA third party devs are when their market researched formulaic games got stomped by smaller, yet more creative and experimental, studios who released "shovelware" type games expanding the scope of what a video game could be, and finding success; while the AAA studios fail with their big budgets and market researched formulas.

So in this very thread you have two groups of Nintendo fans:
One calling them idiots or having a bias against NIntendo for not bringing their top, high budget titles on Nintendo platforms and not giving their audience a chance to support these games with substantial sales, and another calling them idiots who are completely out of touch with Nintendo's audience and are foolish to think the games they aren't porting to Nintendo platforms wouldn't sell well on Nintendo platforms, and instead should observe the "creative, experimental, quirky" games that do sell better on Nintendo platforms, that you know, these third party publishers have historically made instead.
Like, you do realize games like Boom Blox are made by EA, right?
P.S. I'm sure EA felt super that they never bothered porting Assassin's creed to the Wii, but 50+ games like "Get Fit with Mel B", "My horse and Me: Riding for Gold" combined to outsell what they projected Assassin's Creed would have.

Why would EA be bothered with Assassin's Creed?
