Whats the obvious part, because obviously I missed it?

We have 3+ years of evidence saying the market wanted motion controls, and you question it. It blows my mind.

I'm questioning whether it was good for the industry or not. I dont think it was. Just because Nintendo is doing well doesnt mean the industry is doing well. Making a console so completely different from the others made software developers have to focus on 2 completely different setups. This was not a problem last gen with all 3 consoles being very similar, where only minor tweaks needed for each console. Now I am not saying that Nintendo is completely to blame here, alot of these developers made bad decisions with game development. I am just saying that Nintendo can also be blamed despite their financial situation being as good as it is.

If Nintendo had done what everyone else was doing, how would it make all these companies profitable? It wouldn't. The industry would just be losing even more money. It would be even worse for the industry.

The industry would lose even more money or even get worse? How, for starters you wouldnt see all this shovelware crap being pushed out left and right. Not to mention those high budget games that people claim are destroying the industry, the ones that alot of Nintendo fans want but seem to refuse getting a console that actually has them, would probably then get releases on Nintendo platforms and see good sales from it as well. Selling to a bigger install base would make reaching profitablilty much easier to achieve.
