Nintendo just needs to keep doing what they're doing. Third party developers need to step up their game, take a chance every once in a while, actually TRY to make a decent game for the platform, and stop taking the easy roads all the time.
Nintendo can't be the only company risking their asses all the time, and they can't be saving/covering YOUR asses all the time. :p
As far as why Nintendo doesn't do these things, the answer is simple. They don't like playing fast and loose with their money. They'd rather play it safe and live to fight another day, than constantly be the sort of company that barley has more assets than it has debt (Sony). Or to put it another way, they don't want to try to sell a metric heapton of consoles at a loss, and then spend the next seven years trying to make it up in software sales.
Also, Switch could easily wind up getting the same third party support as 3DS. That would just be fantastic.
I'm surprised this comes as news, but yes. Also, why the switch won't have great third party support and changes little from the Wii U.
Welcome to the world of realisation. ;)
i thought you guys said nintendo don't need third party support. was all that to save face?

Not in terms of hardware it isn't.
Not in terms of price it isn't.
Not in terms of multiplats it isn't.

Theres a system like that... its the PS4. It has no waste (unnessary features), R&D + BoM where well spent, its got good price/performance ratios, and its cheap. Its hard to win, by being simular to the leading system. |
The ironic part is... The industry blew up when Microsoft deviated from that... And have yet to recover. (Kinect, Power, Always online etc'.)

The thing about the Gamecube is that... It didn't support DVD's.
My parents for instance bought a Playstation 2 because it was a DVD player and a gaming machine in one.
Sony had also locked up that generation. I don't hink Sega, Nintendo or Microsoft could have done anything to change that anyway.
You do need more than power to come out ahead, but you also need features. And you do need 3rd and 1st party support and the right price.

What has Nintendo risked?
Did I stumble across a thread from 2013?
Nintendo does not need any 3rd party, they'll just keep on milking their franchises and they're good.
Ninty just needs to pay third party execs cocaine and whores, then, just to play safe, take photos and blackmail them.
