Again, I agree. Nintendo needs to walk away from catering to any 3rd parties or "core" gamers. They need to remain on the low cost, high quality, first party centric path.

isnt that what they essentially did with GC and a lesser extent N64? Those didnt turn out too hot either.

No,. N64/GC were traditional consoles that attempted to have great hardware, strong 3rd party support etc.

Wii was where they didn't push specs and focused on first party first. Assumed 3rd parties would be logical and support Wii when it proved itself.

Then WiiU was thinking well we now have a large userbase, so now we return to focus on core and 3rd party. That failed... again.

I'm deliberately not going into a lot of detail here... Rol has preached this since day one and I finally jumped on board kicking and screaming out of selfish reasons.
