Not to be rude, really not, but is this a joke thread?

I mean of course it would be bad. If Nintendo only made software, they would have to stick with the control schemes of rival consoles.

Nintendo designs hardware and software to work well together. They wouldn't be able to do that if they only designed the software, would they?

Exactly.  I remember back when Mario 64 came out and EGM was questioning how some games didn't work well with the N64 controller.  Nintendo pretty much said "We don't give a fuck!  That controller was made for OUR game."  (it was implied, anyway).
