What Can Nintendo Do To Appeal To The West?

I honestly don't think third parties want to support Nintendo. MS and Sony already occupy the "big two" options that third parties want. PC occupies that the third spot. Third parties already have a full docket, there's just no need for another console manufacturer from their POV. 

Nintendo will always be the odd man out in this equation, even if they made a system exactly like third parties liked, there's still the issue that their games would sell less on such a platform because Nintendo games provide more competition that isn't there on MS/Sony's platforms.

So it's a zero sum game for Nintendo there.

Cutting a big deal with Disney and basically letting the two carry the platform with some Japanese third party support would be an OK solution IMO.

If their console is easy to port games to, ie x86 and power on par with the competition, third parties will port their games on Nintendo's next console.  Some even did it at the start of this gen and it was powerPC so it was a pain in the ass for them, if it was easy to port the games over most third parties would do so.  

Idk why you think third parties only want their game on 3 platforms, they will put them on whatever platform makes them money, and if its easy to port the game over it won't even have to sell that much to make money.
