Nintendo did considered the words of the best and most reliable, successful with more IPs than any other company, NINTENDO ITSELF. So successful that they have launched their own hardware with little to no support from other publishers for the last 30 years.

This makes zero sense. Nintendo has lacked major third party support since 1996 and it was primarily their fault as to why they lost it. Nintendo had third party support on par with Sony and Microsoft from the late 80's to the mid 90's and did not give creative freedom to third parties. They had to build their games around Nintendo's hardware. Because of this and Nintendo's marketshare Sega was at a disadvantage with the Sega Genesis. Nintendo only gave devs notice of their console and they basically got to see the final version, they did not give them periodical dev kits like Sony and Microsoft did. If Nintendo had given third parties periodical viewings of their hardware through its phases you would've seen a much more powerful Nintendo console for the next gen, because that would mean they would've been listening to exactly what Epic, EA and Ubisoft have been telling Sony and Microsoft and that is that they needed a highly capable new platform that has at least 8GB of ram.

The only one I recall asking for 8gb of ram was EPIC.
Also as I stated before why was EA all over Nintendo at E3 prasing hwo wonderful and powerful the system was if they cared so much about this 8gb? Were they trolling Nintendo with false prasie to ditch them last minute?

Correct, but EA and Ubisoft have been nagging at MS and Sony for better hardware publically. I believe it was Cliff Bleszinkski that made the statement that 8GB's or ram would suffice for next gen. EA was praising Nintendo because they made a console that was slightly more powerful than current gen consoles, not because it was truly next gen. If you paid attention to the conference the truest of praise was for the controller, not even really the graphics though because Nintendo didn't even take a step graphically towards next gen. EA stated that Battlefield 3 and 4 was made to be fully scalable with the Frostbite 3 engine. The Wii U should've recieved a ported version of part three before their deal fell through and of course that most likely had something to do with Origin.
