Evidence for Nintendo being capable for selling home consoles only with the 1st party is the Fluke and handhelds, excellent... let's just ignore N64 (where Sony was a newcomer and Sega was lost in HW nightmare) and GC (where are our fans) or even WiiU (the worst selling curve of any Nintendo HW besides the real floppy virtual boy, that also doesn't count as Nintendo not able to sell alone)... so we keep at Wii, that fell from the skycrapper after 3 years in the sky and handhelds that unfortunately are contracting.
