I think that with RE6, a lot of people's interesting impression that Nintendo and Capcom are now suddenly chummy will dissipate when Capcom comes-up with their bullshit excuse for why the U isn't getting 6. It's going to be an event that opens a lot of peoples' eyes, I think.
And if I'm wrong, I'll happily admit it. This isn't a case where I'm lowballing expectations to avoid disappointment; it's what I honestly expect.
A lot of folks outside this thread like to paint us Nintendo fanatics as irrational and detached from reality, where we think that the U will get godly PS2-like levels of support and be uber-powerful.. but it just ain't the case. A lot of us know what the score is.
I don't see Nintendo getting substantial levels of third party support until the landscape of the industry fundamentally changes - on the level of one of its competitors exiting the scene. And I think Iwata suspects this in the back of his mind and is maybe aiming to see the company safely through this upcoming transitional period.
