I dont know if Nintendo has the money or if they are even willing to spend to make so many games at once, they need time to make every single game. ALso they want to earn as much money as possible, so one handheld and one console.

They wouldn't be able to make games fast enough to support it with JUST Nintendo games.

The top 10 of best selling games in 3DS are all first party games.

 

But the top 10 doesn't give you anything to stand by; just that the top 10 of 3DS best selling games happen to be first party games.

Going by that rule:

3 games in 2011.

2 games in 2012.

3 games in 2013.

2 games in 2014.

 

Sounds like a terrible drought to have if you only rely on first-party.

 

EDIT: also, Nintendo is the publisher of all these games, but some of those are second-party. You can't simply rely a whole console with first-party support alone.

there is no such thing as second party



It will flop without third-party games. Wii U is the perfect example.

Then, on that top 10 the OP listed there's third-party games done by third-party companies that work for Nintendo.

Wright took the words right out of my mouth. It's exactly what I was going to say.

Make the maths, how many games Nintendo released last year for 3DS? And how many for WiiU? If you combined that number you have a very decent amount of games per year, it would have no major droughts at all.


Numbers dont count only. How many AAA Titles did nintendo released this year?

3ds:

Majoras Mask (Port)

Xenoblade Chronicles (Port)

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

Wii U:

Splatoon (New Game)

 

Missed anything?

 

AAA Titles for Ps4 this year:

Battlefield Hardline

Order 1886

Bloodborne

Project Cars

The Witcher 3

Mortal Kombat X

Evolve

Resident Evil Revelations 2

Dragonball Xenoverse

Dying Light

Darksouls 2 (Port)

Final Fantasy Type 0 HD (Port)

Resident Evil Remastered (Port)

 

Any competition?



So everybody is going to play ignorant here? Of course he is saying that Nintendo won't need to beg for 3rd parties publishers to make NX successful. Nintendo will make the first step, the others will follow. Simple as that.

But of course, Nintendo can't fuck up with the NX release



 

 

We reap what we sow

200$ for an handheld + console at the same time lol



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.
