There was a time, not long ago, when it meant something for a game to have the name of a Big Boy company tagged on it

It meant that there was care and quality put into this product, and you could rest assured that your purchase was a sound one.
It meant that when you put that game in your system and played it, you'd say to yourself, "good job, Big Boy Company, that's why they pay you the big bucks"

The big guys used to work real hard to make the best games they could, and scoop up as many "lil guy companies" with talent and good ideas.
There really wasn't "first party" or "Third party," It was "what system is it on?" When I played Megaman way back when as a young child, I would salute
Nintendo for giving me such a good game, not Capcom, Capcom was just another name on the box, and it worked like that.

A company's success in the video game industry hinges solely on the quality of its games, not franchises or merchandise or DLC. If your games are
no fun, your Name is tarnished, and Brand Loyalty isn't something you can rely on these days.
