So Nintendo has bad software output because they cant match the total of every 3rd party developer combined?

Also u seem to be ignoring a major point I made in both previous posts, they will still have excellent Japanese 3rd party support


No, they just have bad software output, but having two consoles, reguardless of unified platforms, needs to be able to match the total third party output if they want to be self sufficient. And no, they wouldn't have excellent japanese 3rd party support. They'd have pretty decent 3rd party handheld support. What about all the Japanese 3rd party games the Vita is getting that the 3DS isn't? What about all the Japanese console games the PS3/4 is getting that the Wii U isn't, ei all of them.

A single company being able to on average release a new game every 3-4 weeks is not bad software output in anyway and yes Nintendo handhelds have always had excellent support from Japanese 3rd parties, just because they dont get 100% of games doesnt mean they have bad support.

Nintendo games+strong Japanese 3rd party support+family friendly western titles+the occasional AAA western title would easily give Nintendo's unified console/handheld a few games per month which is more than enough to support the console.

Im not saying Nintendo shouldnt allow western 3rd parties on there platforms but they also shouldnt go out of there way to cater to them since there is a huge history of these games no selling very well on Nintendo platforms.
