So, Nintendo Is The Only Gaming Company that Can Survive With No Third Party Support? If Not Who Else? (If each Company Had Their Own HW i mean)

...You do know what it means to survive, right? No one said "thrive." Though even with that, a case can be made with the Wii.

The Wii would be an iffy example because it did have third-party support, but much of it was kind of crap that didn't do too much.

Anyhow, I do know what survive means, and I wouldn't call losing money for more than a year and selling sometimes less than 40k a week even surviving. Maybe you could say "on the cusp." 

But this doesn't go against the fact that yes, people buy Nintendo for their first-party and that is proven by the Wii because everyone I know who bought a Wii bought it for some type of first-party title.
