For a while in the back of my mind I've held the idea that, by-and-large, Nintendo first party games held my interest far more than Sony's or Microsoft's. Likewise, I tended to favor the third party games on the latter 2 systems rather than on Nintendo's systems.

So, today I just went through my relatviely small modern collection (Wii, Gamecube, 360, Xbox, DS, GBA, GBC, GB, and PSP) to compare what games I had were first (& second) party compared to third party. My list follows; what's yours?

(Please note, this is not a pissing contest nor a console war topic. I'm just curious what people's collections looked like in terms of developers.)

Wii:
4 First, 1 Third (Resident Evil 4)
Gamecube: 6 First, 1 Third (Pac-Man vs.)
360: 1 First (Crackdown), 6 Third
Xbox: 2 First, 2 Third
DS: 9 First, 4 Third
GBx: 17 First, 5 Third
PSP: 2 First, 5 Third

Nintendo Systems: 36:11 First to Third
Microsoft Systems: 3:8 First to Third
Sony System: 2:5 First to Third

Overall: 41:24 First to Third

GBA: 10 first party, 9 third party
DS: 9 first party, 6 third party

Sega (when having their own console) = 19 to 131, 14.50382%

maybe they traded everything in to obtain a gamecube and wii. because that would be the only acceptable answer for not owning any handhelds.
 
Wii: 2/3 games are first party
GC: 7/14 games are first party
Xbox: 4/13 games are first party
PS3: 1/2 games are first party
PS2: 10/26 games are first party
PS1: 4/17games are first party
PSP: 8/19 games are first party
DC: 12/22 games are first party
GBA: 11/19 games are first party
GB/GBC: 4/4 games are first party

Total: 63/139 games are first party
 
It seems that I rather favor 3rd party development, but some of that is very intentional. More interestly, is that I havent actually played many of the few first party games that I DO own. I've also listed those separately.

First : Third

Wii - 0:1
PS1 - 0:42
GC- 3:15 (0/3 played)
DS - 3:22 (3/3 played)
PS2 - 3:61 (0/3 played)
GBA - 9:32 (3/9 played)

I believe that gives me the lowest non-zero percentage in these first 15 posts.
