TheLastStarFighter said: Personally I think they are doing great work. They are producing a LOT of great content and in a lot of different genres. It's amazing really. My two gripes are: -I want another good RPG series. A Mistwalker title would be perfect. -They NEED to do something to get more 3rd party support. Pay money, whatever, but Nintendo needs to get 2 or 3 key third party titles on the system. COD, AC and Batman, like in the first few years of Wii U, need to be there. Can you imagine if Nintendo showed all of their great content AND had those titles that were the cornerstone of the Sony and MS conferences available on their platform? It would be domination. Without them, however, there is still something lacking in content and variety - and hype from mainstream core gamers. |
Nintendo needs third party exclusives. Multiplats aren't going to help now, or anytime soon, because Nintendo has allowed itself to be cemented as the last choice: weaker hardware, no universal achievement/trophy policy and tracking system, fewer people online in console multiplats, shoddy ports, and biggest of all, the widespread perception that Nintendo has an inferior online service or that multiplat games are always inferior, even when they are not.
Having multiplats are nice, and I will always welcome more of them, but they aren't going to help Nintendo move systems or gain marketshare for all of the reasons above. Nintendo needs more Bayonetta 2s, LEGO City Stories, Monster Hunters and Devil's Turds Thirds. These are games you can't get anywhere else, and until Nintendo shakes some of its bad stigmas and gets up to par with a couple of the things listed above, they are the only third party games that will matter to most people. Until that magical day comes, it will remain, "I only buy Nintendo systems for first party games."
