Would you be just as big a Nintendo fan if they went "software" only?

I wouldn't as their games rely on their hardware.

The best thing for Nintendo is to adopt the hardware with western world in mind also. i.e. do their crazy thing but also give specs that will make western devs happy.

What I would have done is released hardware with the specs of a PS4 but with two gamepad support out of the gate. Then sell it at a $200 loss (they can afford to do it atm). This would put pressure on Sony and Microsoft to keep their prices down too and it would make it interesting to see how Sony could afford to have such a loss.

I am glad that you're not in charge of Nintendo.

Why because I would take an agressive move against Sony? This was their best opportunity to do so with Sony and their financial woes atm. Last gen I would not consider such move as everyone expected PS3 to dominate.
