I would have to say that compared to the other consoles, the wii really lacked in third party games. Quality third party games. I see the Op's List and Cassiels list, but that does not change my mind. The tough thing is to pick between the PS3 and the 360 since they both have a lot of the same third party games.


hence you get both. One for your halos and gears and the other for your MGS and uncharted.


Those might be the most popular exclusives on the PS3, but there are plenty of others that are worthy of sequels. Plenty of experiences.

well yes, but it would take me longer to write all those games up the OP's post. so listed a couple good examples.

You like PGA Tour 10? I thought it was kinda bland... then again I really think the overall aspect of Golf is bland without the use of Mario Characters.

Mario & Sonic, although containing characters from the Super Mario universe, was developed by Sega... so I'd say it's third party.

Also, how was Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings?

@NintendoPie

Disc Golf. Awesomeness.

Well it's kind of interesting, because some games that are sort of hard to identify.

Like The Last Story for example, since it's published by Nintendo in EU/JP it's technically 1st party... but it's not 1st party in NA where it'll be published by XSEED Games.

But for the most part yeah, if the game is Published and/or Developed by Nintendo, I would consider it 1st party (and I just deleted it. Wasn't too difficult. It must have took you a while to make that chart.)

Few good third parties surrounded by a lot of poorly made titles. First party from Nintendo is mostly without question as usual.
