Nintendo has the capability to have their cake and eat it too. When you have the market for games that are both simple in premise and content-rich in design practically cornered, you have to move outward
Now, i could see that you would say focusing on putting good graphics in the next console would pose a distraction to the core values, but i disagree. Third parties are desperate and not making money, and it would be easy for them to match PS360 in terms of graphics capabilities, and the third party multiplats (which is basically everything worth getting from 3rd parties these days) will go there.
A modular, multipurpose controller would be the next step in making their experience more convenient, and then they can switch their focus back to content.

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
