1st and 2nd Parties in hiding...

[TheGame]

Exhibit A: Silicon Knights
Remember that little company that sold us all on "Too Human," where is Too Human now? I haven't heard about it since last year... The game had better be amazing if it's this TOP SECRET

Eternal Darkness... which wasn't all that great to me... but at least they made somthing.

Exhibit B: Brownie Brown
I have yet to experience the fruits of their labor, granted I don't own a GBA. Where is the RPG we've been promised, WHERE? Nowhere that's where... I mean can we even get a name of the game instead of, "Brownie Brown RPG"pssh...

I agree on this one

Exhibit C: Retro Studios
Yes we're expecting Metroid from these guys? Well "oh joy", maybe they can start work on smaller projects after this and start pumpin out quality, or not... Another long wait will be at hand once Metroid is released I'm sure, or I'm sure they'll prolly get started on the next Metroid! "Oh thank heavens a sequel!

Well... if it wasn't for Nintendo coming in fireing half of the employees, and canning thier football and racing games maybe we would see a little more.

Final Exhibit: First-Party Developers
Entertainment Analysis
Intelligent Systems

Nintendo Software Technologies (NST

EAD and NST have made plenty of Titles.. Luigi, Mario, Waverace etc.

Second-Party Developers
Rareware (axed)
Retro Studios
Silicon Knights
Left Field Productions(axed)
Mobile 21 where's their stuff?
Game Freak ?
Flagship ?
Creatures?

Well, from Rare we got Star Fox... from Retro Metroid... from Silicon knights Eternal Darkness... from Left field NBA Courtside... from Gamefreak Pokemon Advanced... as for the other, I have no clues either.

I think they should do like Microsoft and start putting them all to work. It would be different if the games they made were outstanding, but for GCN they are not.
