Recently their has been a flurry of threads and talk about GameLoft. People talking about how GameLoft has stolen gameplay and ideas from other publishers. They stole Halo, Call Of Duty, StarCraft, LOZ and more, but they are also well known for liscensed content from UbiSoft.
Now origionally I thought that Gameloft was making shovel ware and marketing it to the fans. However after reading and watching reviews I hear from alot of sources that these games are pretty close to the titles they are mimicking. Now granted I don't own an I device so I haven't played the games. But based on reviews and news articles I'd have to say that they do a decent job of porting these hardcore games.
So the question is if they do such a good job ripping off games, why doesn't Nintendo try and get them developing on 3DS. Imagine StarCraft on 3DS or the Halo rip off. Or maybe Nintendo could actually liscense them a Nintendo property and see how they do.
What if Nintendo embraced GameLoft would you like to see Gamelofts titles on 3DS? Or do you think they should stay on I devices? Or maybe UbiSoft should they liscense them other properties and have them release games for 3DS or NGP? I think its a waste of potential for Gameloft to continue making games for the I devices.
I mean if they can rip off Uncharted and Halo they could be a very valuable asset to Nintendo!
