I hope if they LEARN lessons from this affair as many have been alluding to it's not to follow Sony/MS/3rd party model. The only lesson they need to learn is that the casual market is fickle and you better appeal to your base. They've been doing that for the last 2 years after seeing the writing on the wall...so I think we're good.

And you can take the tablet controller from my hands when you pull it from my cold dead hands. Stop trying to ruin our party just because you don't like the music.

That would only put them on the path to obscurity. The sales of the Wii U prove that there aren't enough Nintendo fans to make a console sell well. They need to appeal to a wider market than just Nintendo fans.

I don't care about obscurity.  There's a business model present within the Nintendo fanbase.  It is very strong.  Nintendo doesn't need to sell 60 milion units to remain a viable producer of art and entertainment.  Nintendo has consistently been responding to the changing market by reducing the costs required to build consoles.  There have been significantly diminishing returns on graphics these last few generations and it's all about gameplay now.  Nintendo will  be just fine, despite you beat the funeral drum for them.
