There is that illogical emotional reaction again, sigh.  Anyways, reported.

And yet you report me... Interesting... The reason why I don't think Nintendo should go third party is that they need their Hardware to make Nintendo Quality games... Just look at Sega, one of the main reasons that they don't make good games anymore is cause they don't have their own hardware to work with that goes with their own specifications... They have to deal with whatever the other console manufactures have and have to learn new code and how to work with the OS

That is way off the mark. Nintendo doesn't make good hardware, plain and simple. By that I mean the developing environment could be a LOT better and the power should be greater. Nintendo's devs would only benefit from being able to use less limiting hardware like Sony's.

I don't think Nintendo choose the hardware they chose if their own developers didn't want it... The wiiU is made to Nintendo's specifications, not someone elses... Granted its on a budget but the OS and how the hardware is made and how the GPGPU can do both cpu intensive work as well as gpu intensive and etc (read the article on neogaf) is based on what Nintendo's developers requested... They would not benefit at all to going into Sony's/MS's platform even if thats x86 because Nintendo's developers have not developed a single game on x86 platform... Their first party studios may have but not the main Nintendo developers so unless Nintendo wants to retrain all of their developers, it won't benefit them at the start what so ever
