^I feel that the trend that Nintendo started with the N64 followed them again with the Gamecube and their overall attitude. I mean Gamecube had great titles and I survived with it the whole of last generation without a ps2 or xbox, but I do have to admit that certain Nintendo trends that luckily ended with the launch on Wii have hurt them in the long run. But things like Ubisoft now bringing Rayman Origins to other platforms after they boasted how this game could only be possible on Wii U, that shows the lack of respect big name companies have towards the consumers and their distrust that products won't sell on a Nintendo console. The funny things is that they say that only Nintendo games sell well on Nintendo platforms, I say bullshit, Nintendo games sell well because they are great games in the first place. Only because EA or Activision publish a game on the platform does not means that people have to buy it, its very simple third party or Nintendo, Nintendo gamers buy games for their quality and excuse me if Nintendo manages to raise the bar with their franchises, its only a matter of making a good game, if a third party makes a great game comparable to Nintendo games i am sure gamers are going to buy them, for example Resident Evil 4, a third party game that became an instant classic on a Nintendo platform. I am glad that Nintendo still respects their fans, recently shown by the last Nintendo Direct where Iwata himself apologized to the fans. I mean as long as they keep it real and don't forget their roots, I will wait patiently for the next game to come by. I don't need an annual version of madden, call of duty or assassins creed to keep me entertained playing the same **** over and over again, for that I have tons of classics that I don't have any problem replaying them again.
