Why Nintendo shouldn't suck up to third parties

I only see three possible ways for Nintendo to stay relevant in the console business;
1) Either make a good enough console 3rd parties are content with and wants to make games for. They don't have to sell crazy numbers to be satisfied.
2) Make a new gimmick like the Wii to sell
3) Expand or buy another publisher so they can make more games to avoid these droughts.

I'd go with option #3. Having more development teams would give them more control and would also make them more futureproof.

Personally I'd like to see a combination of all three ^^ I would love to get more 3rd party games on Nintendo's consoles, because no matter what Rol says, there is A LOT of good games not made by Nintendo. He's just plain wrong on that account. But I wouldn't mind seeind Nintendo expanding and take over Megaman and/or Sonic either, and perhaps open up a Western daughter publisher that makes more mature content.
