Quote:IMO, they need to do it on a mass scale, in time for next generation. It's not going to happen, and it would cost the big N a lot of money. But for long term investments, I think it's the only way they could really keep up with Sony and MS.
It just wouldn't be a good use of money to do a operation on the scale you want... Nintendo already makes a lot of first and second party games... and first/second party sales are a higher percentage of Cube sales than X-Box/PS2... and yes, making more teams is a good idea and Nintendo's doing it with Retro... but on some huge scale? No, not a good idea at all. Its not a good use of resources... and if those developers would take as much effort as Retro did to get up to Nintendo levels of quality, they can't possibly even try to...
