The manufacturer is in accordance with third party (English third-party manufacturer ) or third party called.

The term spread among other things through video and computer games (in this context more like third-party developer , English for "third party developer "). In the video game industry, it is common for third-party companies to be allowed to sell products for the platforms ( e.g. Playstation or Wii ) of the so-called first manufacturers (see also Video Game Crash ). While in the early days of video games the most important game titles came from the manufacturers of the platforms themselves, the importance of third-party manufacturers has steadily increased. Nowadays, the first manufacturers (currently only Sony , Nintendo and Microsoft ) often fight for exclusive rights to certain game titles or series of the third-party manufacturers so that they appear exclusively on their respective consoles.
