I find it funny how 3rd parties constantly make such basic errors and display incompetence overall and yet Nintendo is downright EXPECTED to cater to these morons.

Yeah, with other system it's no problem. But when it comes dealing with Nintendo, it's like they decide to leave their brains behind for whatever reason.

The biggest elephant in the room I've noticed when it comes to 3rd parties is the 3DS. The Wii U is one thing, but the fact that a lot of 3rd parties aren't making games for the 3DS is just stupid. You'd think EA, Ubisoft, 2K, etc with how much they've been whining about costs going up as well as install bases would JUMP on the chance to make stuff for the 3DS due to its low cost and high install base. It's this kind of blatant incompetence in general that makes me unsympathetic to 3rd parties

What exactly was wrong with the Mass Effect 3 port? I thought they did a good enough job on it, and that people were complaining about how the Trilogy was released around the same time.

there really wasn't anything wrong with the port. They did a good job on it, the only thing people complained about was it was missing some dlc which really wasn't a big deal. Personally I've had a lot of fun with it.

It's at that point that anyone with brain realizes that those third parties really don't have a problem with the Wii U. their issue is with Nintendo period.

They are trying to strong-arm a company that won't be dictated to. Nintendo is stronger than they think. And the fact that Nintendo is loyal to their own brand is what keeps customers loyal to them.

Third parties could learn a lot from working with Nintendo. Instead, they continue to play the same roulette game with Sony and MS with nothing ever changing. It's asinine.

No kidding; it also doesn't help that those Sony and MS audiences will inevitably shrink due to neither company being all that interested in expanding their user base. The only way 3rd parties are going to wake up and realize the error of their ways is if something big happens.

The E-Shop version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut is 72,75$ here in Denmark (Scandinavia). I'm going for the disc based version because of that.

To buy this game would be an insult to myself, just like Buying Mass Effect 3 when the others got the trilogy.
