We can add to point five, that it isn't a given that games keep the quality if they go third-party, as illustrated by Sega. In fact, we cannot name one example of a game company going successfully from first- to third-party. We do for the other way - Nintendo produced a few games for other system before the NES.

NES was 3rd gen. Nintendo had a 1st gen console (the Nintendo Colour TV-Game), so are you saying Nintendo were 3rd party during the 2nd gen? As in... they went from being 1st party to 3rd party once already?

You can get Donkey Kong, Mario Bros., and a few others on the 3 major 2nd generation consoles. I have Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr. for ColecoVision.
