They should keep their marketing efforts on signing up good developers to make good games, since that's ultimately the driving force for people to buy the console.

Either way though, I think if people would like to misuse your brand, they'll find a way. At least with fan kits you have a slither of control over the way people work with your brand. For instance - if you would like to show your logo on only a black background - only give people the necessary tools to use the logo in that way. Keeping your brand in tact is definitely something you should consider though! Thanks for your comment... That’s true.

I would have thought that a general fankit would leave yourself open to having your brand misused. Maybe that's why they avoid it? If you're uber pedantic about every aspect of your brand, I can imagine being a bit reluctant to give people access to the assets and potentially misusing them. Admittedly I don't know much about fankits though, so I could be missing something here :D I can see your point though!! Hmm - interesting points.
