NINTENDO = QUALITY = LONG DEVELOPING TIMES


Well to be fair, for the most part Insomniac = quality = one year.  It's possible to be quick and good.  Who knows.

Insomniac's on a 2 year cycle for their sequels now (Resistance, R&C).  Which is better than last gen, annual R&C releases almost killed the series on PS2 imo.

That building won't be up and running until like 2014 or something, right?

Probably. It's very very big, even if money isn't a problem for Nintendo, it will take a little long to build. 2012~2014 is a possibility.

As a 1st party developer, Nintendo have a general policy of making games that have long legs as per Iwata. Although this isn't exactly the case for some of its games but this is why their big games sell better than 3rd party games.
Nintendo is quality over quality.
"Less is More" is their policy which is good.
