No games have been as exciting as Nintendo games this gen. They really tried to outdone theirselves with great titles such as Super Smash Bros Brawl or even Mario Kart Wii. Yeah, Nintendo console do have problems with third party devs. But if you want to try those HD games, play with a friend who has a PS3 some of the games you wished to have on the Wii.

Many many are not as appealing, as exciting, as fun as Wii games are. New Super Mario Bros Wii doesn't reinvent the platforming genre like Mario Galaxy did, but it is indeed much more fun than Modern Warfare 2 or even Uncharted 2. Multiplayer is a blast... and Nintendo's magie worked again.

To solve the problem, the smartest move would be an alliance with Sony. Sony would take in charge the hardware side of the problem while Nintendo would bring their popular franchises to add with the few of Sony. If this happens someday, then this will be recorded in history.

Nintendo is really better as a third party publisher.

I don't see how you can reach that conclusion when Nintendo makes more money on hardware than any other gaming company. You're also ignoring the important advantage of being able to design hardware that facilitates your software.
