Well its not that kind of game for everyone but I wouldn't consider it shovelware since it has a certain game quality. Shovelware are unoptimized, not finished. buggy and laggy videogames developed to make fast money! 

From my personal experience, good games come with good hardware. And Sony's home console hardware ALWAYS have good games, which is why I like Sony's hardware in the first place. Because they give good games. LOTS of them. First AND 3rd party.

While I do love Nintendo's 1st party the most, I would give up their home consoles anyday for Sony's because Sony's hardware allows for 3rd parties to bring about the amazing games they envision. The day Nintendo's hardware does that, I'd go exclusively Nintendo. But I don't think that day will ever come.

Well from MY personal experience better hardware equals worse games! Many Nintendo titles were done on consoles without cutting edge hardware. Look at the Wii! One of the best games (Mario Galaxy) were made on this console and still outshines MANY Playstation 3 games.

good hardware /= good games

I don't have faith in publishers other then Ubisoft or take 2. Imagine ea, acti, capcom, or square getting their hands on them I would expect yearly rehashes COD like MP and SALEZ :(

I will take Uncharted 2 (and possible upcoming TLOU seeing all the raging scores) over any mario game anyday.

I hope they don't make money. They deserve to make money until they stop being asshats trying to make you buy proprietary items for their products. I should be able to use the standard SD card on any of their cameras for example.

I'm not madly in love with most Nintendo home console games (handhelds are a differnent story-Pokemon/The Word Ends With You). I tried Super Mario Galaxy 2, Zelda TP, Kirby's Epic Yarn, DK CR but didn't like them very much. The Wii was fun, but the 1st party games on it didn't make me go WOW. My favourite Wii game was Dragonball Z BT3, but that was also available on PS2 and the exclusive online mode on the Wii was garbage, which was the reason to play on Wii. Nintendo home console games haven't really appealed to me since the original NES/SNES days. I will give them props for making me a gamer with Super Mario Bros and giving me my favourite franchise of all time-Pokemon, but most Nintendo games just don't appeal to me anymore, and neither do they have the 3rd party support to warrant thier console a buy.

The 1st and 3rd party games available on PS3 appeal to me far more. It is simply a case of better hardware (plus better services)=better software for me personally with PS3.

I enjoy many of these "cell phone" games as much as most console games, including Sonys. Game is fun no matter what platform is on...

This thread has a very misguided faulty idea behind it. You're illustrating and example of someone that thinks their beliefs and taste in gaming matter most and are the "right". Its very common around here.

Your example is invalid as all of sony's cameras now support the standard sd card, and besides the vita they don't do propriety anymore. Check out their phones all use industry standards. So you also think that MS and Apple shouldn't make money too cause of their propriety products like the xbox hdd's or apple's adapters and $100 16-32-64 memory upgrades or is this a one way streak?

Hold on, since when did Nintendo become the white-knight gaming savior that only focuses on games? Are we suddenly forgetting the Wii Netflix/Hulu push or TVii? Just because Sony has other properties doesn't mean they aren't contributing enormously to the gaming industry (Journey, Heavy Rain, Shadow of the Colossus, etc.) I wish the best of the luck to both Nintendo AND Sony.
