"First, the point of that is to reduce the number of applications" True, quality over quantity, which I think we will see more of from Apple in the future. The goal at first was to attract as many developers as possible. Now that they have established the store, we will see more discrimination. Hence the removal of the 'cookie-cutter' applications of late. Maybe I'm wrong about that though. "Second: Apple is much larger then Nintendo, so they have the resources for sure." True, but they also have many more product lines including a major operating system and much more hardware to support and develop than Nintendo. I was simply pointing out the failures of the comparison.
