You're missing the point. The numbers point to two massive companies worth of sales potential that would easily suck up the third. Without having the cost of developing an expensive hardware platform or having to constantly reinvent, Nintendo would do more than print their own money being 3rd party on PS(whatever) or xbox(whatever)...the Nintendo people would all shift to a platform and all the existing MS or Sony people would start blasting money into Nintento IP. The money is not in hardware, it's in the games and hardware addons.
They could even demand from MS or Sony direct hardware support so that they could keep upgrading their interface to what they want/demand. You would buy your Playstation with a Nintendo controller instead of the stock PS one you don't like.
It's all theoretical but honestly, with all their games, they'd probably invent a whole new form of currency...just to be able to quantify how much they were really making.
