If 3rd parties would put the same effort in their games and in the marketing as Nintendo does, I believe their games would sell much more.

 

Like they did on GC, N64, SNES and NES? Ok, SNES had streetfighter.

NES and SNES both had great third party sales, what are you going on about?

 

 

SNES had ok third party sales, NES did not.

Here is an example of great 3rd party sales:

Compare it to NES:

Yeah... the NES numbers are really incomplete on this site.

Aside from that... all developers not Nintendo were basically constrained to 4 games per year.  While Nintendo was not.
