The only reason Sega was able to "survive" there fallout is because they weren't soley console games.

They made arcade games, owned arcades and a number of other buisnesses that were pretty successful.

While I agree that Nintendo isn't going software only (short of some major twist in the industry), your argument here doesn't really make sense.

Nintendo's games and hardware aren't actually their only product. Most notably, they have Pokemon merchandise and the TV show. There are others, though. And if Nintendo were in a position in which their gaming business was weakening dramatically, they would almost certainly refocus to compensate, likely towards merchandise and arcades.
