Would it be better for the GAMERS if Nintendo became software only?

For everyone that is sayin YES... all that means is that you recognize that Nintendo makes good games, so why then do you not support their consoles?

Because they make terrible hardware, especially compared to their competitors

I can buy nintendo land on the PS4, I cannot buy Killzone Shadowfall on the Wii U

I can buy Monster Hunter 4 on Vita, I cannot buy Wipeout 2048 on 3DS

I remember an earlier thread where Nintendo fans were talking about 3rd party support on wii, suggesting that people would buy the mass downgrade of games if only they would make them.......why though? when the better hardware of the competitors come with no sacrifice to the developers( who have ambition) vision. So you can play the next Mario which can be made everywhere else?

 

So your decision is solely based on power? 

To buy another console to support EA, Activsion, 2k, etc... is silly. They have no loyality to hardware. They will stop making games for any console that doesn't sell to their expectations. Its just a bonus to be able to play their games. 

1st party games are what sell consoles. If Sony didn't produce games like Killzone or Wipeout would you still buy their product? 

I have never needed to buy a Playstation because my roomates always had one, but if I decided to, it would be because of their exclusives and the third-party titles would be secondary. 

Nintendo creates its games around its consoles so making games for other systems may effect their creative edge. Look at Sonic for example, the best games were made on Sega hardware.
