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.

Nintendo games don't provide more competition, they are very different compared to third-party games. MS/Sony games appeal more to many gamers, and Nintendo gamers don't like third-party games if they aren't Skylanders or Just Dance. That speaks a lot about the demographic.
