Who has the best 1st party devs this gen

SONY World Wide Studios 184 59.16%
 
Nintendo 117 37.62%
 
Microsoft 10 3.22%
 
Total:311

So who has had the best 1st party devs this gen, when i say devs i mean devs who have produced titles this gen. For example Naughty Dog has done Uncharted this gen compared to Jak and Daxter last gen. 

Also some developers are 2nd party like Bungie and Insomniac  so they dont count 

Also i am counting out Portables such as DS and PSP, and if i am missing something for nintendo comment bellow

So who would it be 

SONY World Wide Studios:

Naughty Dog: Uncharted 1/2

Zipper Interactive: MAG, Socom4

Guerrilla games: Killzone 2/3

SCE Studio Japan (team ico): The last Guardian 

SCE Santa Monica: God of War 3, Warhawk

SCE San Diego: MBL: The Show, Modnations 

SCE Studio Liverpool: Wipeout HD

Evolutions Studio: Motorstorm

Media Molecule: Littlebigplanet 2

Polyphony: GT5

SCE London: Singstar, Eyetoy

Nintendo:

EAD Group 1: Mario Kart Series

EAD Group 2: Wii Branded games

EAD Group 3: Zelda 

EAD Group 4: New Super Mario Bros Wii

EAD Group 5: Wii fit

EAD Tokyo: Super Mario Galaxy  1/2

Ninendo SPD: Metroid Other M

Nintendo NSD: Personal Trainer: Walking

Retro Studios: Donkey Kong country Returns

Nd Cube: Wii Party

HAL Laboratory: Kirby Series 

Microsoft Game Studios:

Bigpark: Kinect Joy ride

Good Science Studio: Kinect Adventures

Lionhead studios: Fable 3

Rare: Kinect Sports

Turn 10 studios: Forza 3

 

You can see Microsoft is clearly disadvantaged by having poor First party studios (dont know why they haven't expanded, oh well), Sony and Nintendo have a wealth of 1st party. It will be difficult for people since Sony has more "hardcore" titles than Nintendo. 

So who will you choose 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Around the Network

Sony by far.



You forgot Quantic Dream and Insomniac for the Sony list.



Nintendo



Nintendo Network ID: Sherlock99

For my tastes... Sony > Microsoft > Nintendo.



                            

Sony hands down, no contest



I don't know exactly how many there are but you sure have forgotten some studios on Nintendo, like Kamelot, Intelligent Systems, Brownie Brown and GameFreak. And yes you also forgot Insomiac and Quantic Dream on sony's side as gurglesletch says and also sucker punch.



Since Donkey Kong Country Returns isn't out yet SONY for me!!!



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Nintendo, although Sony's first party games are also stellar. (Particularly the ones by Team Ico.)

I don't really care about Microsoft's first party games, to be honest.
