(Mario RPG, Perfect Dark, Crash Bandicoot 1-3)
3rd party game: Game not plublished by, developed by, or owned by console maker.
(Madden, Street Fighter, WWF Games)
Square, Rare, and Visual concepts have all made 2nd and 3rd party games.... Sega has made 1st and 3rd party games... So how can you label the developers it it's not based off of the games?

Argh all so confusing.. so very very confusing
I'm not too sure on this but isn't Mario Tennis a 3rd party game or is that a 2nd party game developed by a 3rd party team?
Argh this stuff is not as cut and dry as I thought.
