Nintendo won't join Microsoft and Sony and pay developers to make their games exclusive on Nintendo platforms, the company has said.
There are a number of issues that arise whenever games decide to announce early so let's go over some of them to find out why this is a bad practice.
To be honest I'd rather know stuff is in the works but other ppl throw fits over it so it's whatever
Yeah. Fallout 4 announcement was great. Announced during the summer and it came out fall of the same year.
The same thing happened with Witchbrook, its been multiple years and nothing. No updates at all, really. It's nice to know something is coming, but waiting for 5+ years for info isn't really fun
Ikr I agree tho, in the ps360 era games were shown in trailers and they'd release within a couple months, plus cutscene trailers are so days of the old I don't get hyped off of that, they used to show gameplay footage, screenshots in the game informer magazines they had confidence back then creativity was at a all time high folks weren't copying souls games like that or call of duty, nowadays we get shhi like 2023/2024 trailer with a damn fall 2026 type of release day like really bruh tf by time that come out yall sure ya gone get sales from folks who been

I appreciate their integrity, but it's a questionable decision from a business standpoint...
But i remember reading somewhere about a Sony spokes person (i think) saying that they don't pay for exclusives, that they'd rather try to earn the 3rd party devs respect or something.
Back on topic: I wouldn't know how this works out in a business standpoint but Nintendo themselves make a lot of exclusives for their own hardware so imo it makes sense.
SONY doesn't pay
It's just M$
the only one of the 3 that pay for exclusives ( most of which are timed ) is Microsoft. Sony has stated that since the PS3 first released and they were getting crap about all their PS2 exclusive franchises launching on the 360. Sony & Nintendo can make their own games and MS can't and that is the bottom line.... Why pay someone else to do what you can do yourself?
