They need to just go thirdparty on consoles, they just don't have the core market that sony and microsoft, they can't compete and nintendo knows that and thats why they made the wii, and it was a huge success but thats not happening again the blue ocean market has moved on, they are stuck with out a market and no third party support, chances of being succesful are nearly impossible, the console is really hurting the company, they better focusing on handhelds and making x1 and ps3 games.


You mean...like SEGA?


Sega lost third party support in a similar way, yes, but the writing on the wall for Segas demise was on the wall. Nintendo wont die, they just lost the core market because they lost third parties over a dedcade ago. The core third party market has basically learned not to depend on Nintendo. Nintendo's sales would be amazing if they spread their games across their competitions platforms and keep the portables going. Sega as a console and handheld brand in general was phased off and their third party was just terrible because the market had surpassed their brand of first party. That and Nintendo's hold on third parties didn't really allow Sega to get multiplats until they upped their marketshare.
