Never ever gonna happen. Even if the NX is the most powerful machine ever, I don't think the hardcore demographics will embrace the console either way. And with an install base of 0 compared to whatever Xbox One and PS4 wil have in 2016, no third party is going to make a huge expensive AAA title pushing the NX to its limits, as it would be more profitable to develop for the others. While third parties want powerful machines, the demographics are as important. Which is why the Wii U, though it is more powerful than the 360/Ps3, still is not getting Black Ops 3

You heard it here first! With the NX soon to become the most powerful console on the Market and 2nd comes Sony's Console..... I predict 3rd party developers are going to take advantage at the NX's capabilities and PUSH the PS4 to it's limits... leaving the Xbox One not powerful enough to handle those games. I'm sure it's powerful enough but it's going to be a "weaker" version of 3rd party games. The games won't sell and 3rd party will LEAVE Xbox One. Which is giving the XBox One the "Wii U" treatment.... Agree with me?  


With 8 million units sold in the US (double the Wii-U) and growing... not a chance.



If the NX can steal pretty much all of the core gaming fans from X1, the OP might be right.

Spoilers: Not gonna happen.

First of all, no level of power the nx will have, even if it was 3x titan, will make 3rd parties support it. 3rd parties will not support the nx, just like they basically didn't support the wii, aside from shovelware and party games/dance games, and they didn't support the wiiu.

So no, 3rd parties will not abandon the x1, but they have already abandoned the nx, judging from the support they've given nintendo lately, atleast.


I disagree. I think they will support Nintendo but they didn't these last two gens because Nintendo was so far behind that it was a pain to deal with. If the NX is indeed just as powerful as the consoles of today  I see not reason for them not to release games on the NX. Espicially if Nintendo makes it easy to do by making the hardware similar to that of the X1/PS4.

Oh yeah? With a steal like that its no wonder the Wii U is lost in obscurity.

I'm sure its a great game... but kinda niche compared to what the relevant consoles are getting.

No



                                                                                     

Yeah, that's not the way 3rd party support works. 3rd parties didn't drop the struggling PS3 early last gen. Even if the NX somehow turns out to be the most powerful of the 3 consoles, 3rd parties won't magically drop the X1 in favor of the NX. Less anyone forgot, the PS2 was the weaker than the GC and Xbox, but that didn't stop it from garnering tons of 3rd party exclusives and a near monopoly on the industry.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

No third party games are selling good on x1 if you considers its mall install base.
