My assumption is that 3rd parties, as well as the industry as a whole, has a serious grudge against Nintendo and would like to see them go out of business

I'm gonna go ahead and call BS on the grounds that Nintendo is widely respected.

Respected doesn't preclude resentment, and that respect can be in one direction, while dismissal can come in another.

So, in conclusion people believe that companys like Namco, Sega, SE and so on are secretly wishing that Nintendo vanishes off the face off the earth...? waaa....? Why?

It's called "competition". For instance, Microsoft wants Apple off the face of the earth.

This is a basic principle of business: less competition equals better business. Nintendo is one of the biggest competitors both in terms of software and hardware. Their elimination would be a huge success for 3rd parties and console developers alike.

umm learn your history, Microsoft actually bailed out Apple at one point saving them from almost bankruptcy. Sure there were some legal issues that needed to be settled  but Microsoft could have drawn it out until Apple folded.
