Pandering to third parties, rather in investing in new studios of their own and dominating, that will be their downfall I think.

They are investing in new studios, but 3rd parties can give so many more games than Nintendo can make

True, however there are two issues with that:

1) Nintendo have proven that their first parties can be far more successful than most of the rest of the industry, even if it is less games it is less but more appealing games.

2) Third parties percieve Nintendo as an enemy or too much competition, and thus Nintendo's efforts to court them are doomed from the start (unless they compromise their own games, which is shooting themselves in the foot though that seems to be exactly what they're doing on 3DS...)
