Prince of Persia 2
Goldeneye: Rogue Agent
Splinter Cell (and Pandora Tomorrow)
True Crime: Streets of LA
Hitman 2
Duke Nukem Forever
etc

For fuck's sake, they make more than Mario and Donkey Kong, if you'd just open your fucking eyes.
By my count, that is 2 first party games, 0 second party ones and the rest are all 3rd party. And sports games don't count.

I am talking mostly about 1st and 2nd party games. If they had given Rare more of a chance (before they jumped ship ), there could have been some kickass games on GC. How many companies still make games exclusively for Nintendo? Not many. How many titles are being released on both Xbox and PS2, but not GC? Too many.

My point is, that if Nintendo and the 2nd party companies make more of an effort to get rid of the stigma, they can attract more 3rd party developers to make mature games. They don't have to stop making games like Donkey Konga or Paper Mario 2, because those are going kick ass when they are out, but they need to attract the majority group to buy the system and its games. I read somewhere that the average gamer's age is now 29.
