Going third party won't benefit them neither the other third parties. They need Nintendo Fusion. One console, great library.

That's fine but it would be niche market.  Their market share is being eroded and frankly I will buy their consoles but years after they released and used so they won't see any of my money


I think that would still sell a good 65-80 million units, which isn't niche. They will benefit from higher software sales too using the Fusion model, because they won't have games like say Mario Kart 8 or Bayonetta 2 stuck on the smallest part of their hardware base, by combining both, they can sell to a wider userbase.

The 3DS and Wii U will still sell 90-100 million pieces of hardware between them this generation. 

The main issue for Nintendo is the emergence of smartphones IMO, not so much Sony/MS. They can deal with Sony/MS, smart devices pose a much more difficult challenge for them. That's where erosion is really hitting them.
