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

No - Just release strong hardware that can compete with Sony and Microsoft.
Yeah release a console that can barely considered be on par with the PS3 shortly before the PS4 and NextBox aka consoles that are on par with current HighEnd PCs come out.
3rd Party wouldn't ignore Nintendo if their system would be comparable to others in terms of power.
We have seen the jump from an Alpha Build that isn't using more than 2GB RAM of the new console over the PS3 and they really want to compete with that and justify their decision?
When the Gen Transition Games are gone and Devs start to use the potential of PS4/NextBox we will see even bigger jumps.

Third parties have ignored power-parity Nintendo hardware in the past. However. Third parties are determined to ignore Nintendo no matter how self-destructive it is.
