Should Nintendo partner more with third-parties? Or should it try something else instead?

 Zelda has been doing the same in recent years with the main studio working on the main Zelda franchise games (TP, SS, the next one for Wii U) while their B-Team works on things like Redoing Ocarina of Time for the 3DS and now Wind Waker HD remake for Wii U. 

Grezzo, an independent third-party, did the Ocarina remake. No idea who's doing Wind Waker, but if it's anyone inside Nintendo then resources are clearly not being utilized wisely.

 

You make a good point about letting third-parties use Nintendo's IPs. The only rebuttal I have is that they tried to do just that in the Gamecube era, with mixed results. Sega has put out several Nintendo games, including Nintendo exclusives. But Namco hasn't been the best of buds.
