Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo and 3rd parties *Formerly; Nintendo is f*cking up big times with 3rd parties*

I understand why people are skeptical when it comes to rumors from an unproven source, but I also understand that there's usually more than one side to every story.

Is it completely out of the realm of possibility that Nintendo have also done something recently to repel third parties? Any answer but 'No' is plain irrational, and this has nothing to do with Nintendo either. You could say the same about relationships between any companies.

Personally, the reason I'm keeping an open mind about this one comes down to two words:
I'll give you a hint: The second word starts with Y, and ends with amauchi.

For one, the man has been known to be a ruthless vindictive bastard in the past, and this has been seen in the way he ran the company on several occasions during the 80s and 90s.

Second, he's still alive and very much in a position to affect major company policies, and there's no reason to believe he wouldn't exercise this right. I'm sure it's still very much his company, as far as he's concerned. 

For me, those two points are enough to add up and convince me there's a possibility some of this is on Nintendo.

I'd love to hear arguments about flaws or mistakes in my point of view.

A very good post with very good points!

I have not read the whole thread, but for what company does you friend work for? Is it Sony?
Because if it is, how the hell is he supposed to know about Nintendo's doings.

What's the logic in denying devs access to 1/4 of your system's available RAM? Or is it a case of laziness/incompetence rather than sabotage?

The reason as far as I understand it is to make Nintendo's own games look and run much better than 3rd parties. And tihs is apparently something they've done since the GC days, or even earlier.


Men seriöst nu får du fan ge dig, rent skitsnack

Helt seriöst, jag återger bara det jag har hört av en källa inom idustrin som har haft rätt om vad PS4an kommer att kunna göra - vilket får källan att framstå som trovärdig. Han har också pratat med andra inom industrin som säger att det här påminner om GC eran... Nintendo har givit utvecklarna bättre dev kits nu, men det var efter hela den där rabaldern om att dom höll tillbaka hårdvaran.

And what's even more troubling is that I just heard that Nintendo has canceled 2 3rd party games to the Wii U; 1 being exclusive and 1 being a multiplat. And these games are well known, popular titles by a major publisher. The exclusive games will now probably be heading to the PS360.

 

You say you have things to back everything you're saying up. Where is the proof behind these two canceled third-party games that we've never heard about?

And why you do you say Nintendo canceled them? Nintendo can't cancel someone else's games. That makes no sense.

I'm just letting you know what my source told me. Perhaps Nintendo was paying to get the games? I don't know. I can't offer you proof about anything I say, only show you that I infact have inside information - I have made some predicitions regarding e3 and Sony...

håller fullständigt med det är så löjligt så de e inte sant.

 

Att killzone skulle visas va de tup 80% chans ingen svår gissning och att de skulle gå o streama till vita var typ 90% säkert.

Han har gått på en riktig svensk Mindfuck.

Jag visste att PS4an skulle ha högre specs än vad rykterna sa, jag visste att Vita skulle kunna strömma PS4 spel via Gaikai, jag vet att Sony funderar på att du ska kunna ladda kontrollen genom att bara lägga den PÅ konsolen och att konsolen kommer att kunna höra/läsa av dina hjärtslag och så vidare...

If it reminds of the GCN era then the Wii U should be quite stronger than it is now and it's not like the 3rd party support sucked on it, it was decent. Well, at least much better than the N64 era.

Just to let people. You should really press him to reveal everything he claims he knows. As of now he technically cant be wrong( or chances of him wrong lower) because he can pretend he was right on anything that fits the criteria. Lets say hes hinting at crash to be the ps1 comeback game but its actually spyro. He still won in a sense. Everything BS intill you give us something to judge you by.

It's not spyro... Look up my e3 prediction thread.

The biggest reason the Wii got skipped on many 3rd party games was cost. Devs said they had to entirely build their game different for SD, and didn't feel the cost was worth it. Now that the Wii U is HD, even if less powerful than PS4/720, it's still in the same ballpark, just have to reduce textures and model polys.

hmmm on the one hand, the Ninty thing doesnt seem to be outside the realm of possibility, its not like Ninty hasnt done questionable things in the past. Like the whole sabotage Virtual console in order to boost the WiiWare titles, which I would love to hear someone have an alternative to why we simply stopped getting VC games. But on the other hand, it could be wrong and really who cares? Im more interested in these megatons. Ninty home consoles not getting the greatest 3rd party support is an old hat by now.

Well, head over to my e3 prediction thread for SOny! Plenty of megatons and meltdowns there ;)
