Personally, I think there's far more at stake for Nintendo in attracting third parties than may appear to be the case: If they go one more generation without third party support, it may permanently cement Nintendo's systems as perpetually devoid of third party support (like how few developers write software for Macs compared to PCs), and create a self-fulfilling prophecy that will be damn near impossible to break for generations to come: No third party support, which means no third party bothers to try, which means half-assed efforts, which means low sales for third party games, which means no third party support...

I think its To late for Nintendo, 3rd Party snubing the Wii shows we are already in that trend you speek.  I think they should keep growing outward. thats where the money is at. Stuff that hasent been done yet.

Who is kicking ass now a day's?  All new products. Apple etc..

Nintendo staying out of the Online, gaming this generation means its way behind and wont ever catch up unless they spend a tone load of cash. You can't have 3rd party withought a way to fix there crappy games post having sold it to you.

Not only do they have to pump out a insain Machine and sell it at lost. They need to set up Huge online server and catch up to over 5 years of experience with it?  Sounds imposible to me

You think Nintendo can pull that off?  and to gain what? steal a few Sony-X-box users?

Users that still bought the Wii for the Nintendo 1st and 2nd party games anyways?

 

Nintendo Studio Growth times 3 by 2012 and keep the pedal to the medal with it  Thats what sell's Nintnedo systems. not 3rd party support.
