Why would they? NN next console we can assume won't have third party support that ship sailed along time ago that will take a long time to repair. Also by then the XO/4 will be in their stride . The real question is.

Do NN have the "courage" to release another console that early? For me personnaly its a little to early.


Nintendo can get third party support any time they so wish. They simple need to give third parties what they want which they haven't done since the N64. In today's world they need all the online features of the other consoles, a system which is powerfull enough and blood simple to port games to. Untill Nintendo does this it's safe to assume Nintendo isn't actively pursuing cross platform support. In 2016 if they came out with something similar architecturally to the PS4 but twice the power with proper online features Nintendo would get all the big cross platform content. Some of the smaller games wouldn't come unless the sales of cross platform gamers were high enough to justifty the expense of porting.
