^I haven't heard about that since the Gamecube days.  Looking at Nintendo's comfort with outsourcing development to  Namco, Capcom, Team , Hudson I have to wonder if it is a Japanese culture comfort thing (that they want to business only within their existing group of relations).  They jettisoned Rare and Retro (as perhaps another indicator of this).

And perhaps this is why they don't have a more aggressive publishing arm.


It's a little weird as I heard talk of Sony getting arrogant and going it solo with PS3 and their own first party output wanting to rely on that. They've got decent support regardless because of the power of the machine. Buts its interesting in the balance, I mean what does a first party do? Produce too little and hope that third parties plug the gap? Or produce more content and alienate third parties?

It's the Kobe Bryant dilemma. If he passes the ball around to his team mates and they fail he's doggin' it, but if he keeps the ball and scores 50 points he's a ballhog.

So what you're saying is that the Lakers should sign up Miyamoto?

Basketball analogies are confusing.
