Can Nintendo hold the Wii By them selves?

But thats whats been happening since the Wii came out.

The Wii had a runaway success with Wii Sports and Nintendo has put out a lot of excellent games for sure with a lot of great games on the horizon however if only Nintendo develops for the Wii successfully and every major non-Nintendo franchise goes to other consoles then it will suffer.

It would be pretty foolish to argue otherwise.

i know but not every major franchise will go to whe ps3/360 and alot of them have appeared on them and it has had no affect on wii,but i think then it would end in a 3 way draw

Think about this.

Imagine it happened.  Imagine that Nintendo did have to almost single-handedly support the Wii with its games.  This would cement the image that "Only Nintendo games sell on Nintendo consoles."  Do you understand how painful that stigma would be not only this generation but in the following ones?  Even with the highest selling console of the bunch, 3rd parties choosing not to support a Nintendo console means that they wouldn't even support it at its best. 

This is all hypothetical, but this stigma is a very real possibility that Nintendo very much needs to avoid.
