Here's an interesting question though ...

What would happen if you gave Nintendo the PS4 chipset and you forced Sony to make the Wii U their chipset.

Odds are (grudingly or not), Nintendo would get most of the third party games that Sony currently has.

With such a high powered console and relative ease of porting from PC/XBox One, developers simply could not afford to ignore it.

Whereas Sony, as much as third parties "like" Sony ... eventually support for a Wii U like Sony console would fizzle out after a couple of years as developers transitioned more over to the next-gen hardware.

It's business. Not personal. Nintendo makes weird business and design decisions that don't suit third parties. Given the choice of two other options that are far more predictable, third parties will chose that route.
