We all notice how terrible third party support is on the Wii U. This is the truth, but what if there were a way to solve the third party problem or help make the third party support bigger? We all know that third parties are pushing the Wii U away but what if that "third" becomes a "first"? I am trying to say that Nintendo can emulate a third party developer or publisher and make third party like games for the Wii U. By third party like I mean games like Fifa NBA NFL FPSs MLB Open Worlds games and so on and so forth.

I was doing some research and I found that Nintendo owns around 15 studios that make software. Think about this. What if each studio made one game a year? Those are 15 games a year just from Nintendo. Think about this. Some studios like Retro developed two games at once. Imagine only half of the studios did that. That makes 22 games a year. Oh wait, dont many games take more than a year to make? Yes, but not sport games. Agree or disagree but a good percentage of third party games include sports games. Say a studio releases an FPS every 2 or 3 years but 5 studios release a sports game every year.

Nintendo have the money to put into these studios and that is what they should do. What do you think?

You're forgetting that Nintendo has 2 systems to support, so even if all 15 studios made 1 game a year, those 15 games would need to be divided between 3DS and Wii U.

What they should do is have more studios.. 15 is great but if Third Parties are gonna abandon them, then they need to spend their wii money on getting new studios to make whatever games necessary. And they should continue to do what they are doing with Sega, Plat and Tecmo and have second party games as well

I agree but let me ask you this. When is the last time you saw people buy Fifa or Nba or Madden on the 3ds? Not as much people as the people who play these games on home consoles. Even if the Wii U only has 8 dedicated studios. They can probably make at least 4 sports games a year and maybe a FPS and action game every now and then.

I have made a thread about Ninty aqcuiring more studios but i am talking about the situation that they are in now. This would help tjem and no Ninty fan will believe otherwise.

The problem is that Nintendo gamers play real games not stuff like (*)Fifa or Madden etc.  Having Nintendo make a Fifa clone wouldn't change much. It needs to be something special  like this game here:



This was a great game and it was hilarious. Just look at the eyes. (but dont use Mii's they are just dumb and I hate them for being in my mario kart games)   Nobody needs stuff like (*)$5 DLC sold for 60 bucks every year.


But what I always wondered is this. Remember the NES? Where Konami etc. were not allowed to have more than X games per year? So they just made up new companies.   Why does Nintendo not make a new company and just dont tell anyone lets call it Odnetnin. Make it big with great franchise that also come to competitiors consoles but keep the best version with exclusive content on Nintendo and then just go NIntendo exclusive after 4 years or so without saying its Nintendo and without being bought by the real Nintendo.

So other third party devs and customers think  "Oh cool third party dev/Publisher Odnetnin is only on Nintendo so I have to buy a Nintendo system."

Do sports games sell well except for FIFA, Madden and the NBA games?
And 1 game a year would result in some rushed and probably not very good quality games which is the opposite of most of the games Nintendo makes.

I agree with the part about Ninty gamers play real games, but you have to notice that some Ninty fans also have another system for third parties. I like your idea of the secret company but as you said. Third parties and customer will be like this system has exclusives that i can only play here. It would be great for Nintendo to show the customer that why play NBA 2k when you can play a basketball game that is Wii U exclusive. It shows them that they can play every genre plus the exclusives on theyre console.

Maybe Fifa NBA and Madden is all the sports games they need. Well what do you think Take Two or EA does with sport games? They take the one for the year before, copy the roster and add a few players, change some mechanics and touch up on the graphics and boom! They do not have to come up with a story or characters or even items.

8 games a year is still a pitifully small number, dude, and having half of those be sports games is overkill. Football and soccer are the only two sports games they need, all the other sports are waaay less popular.
