This. The tech issue is there but some of the publishers/developers have some deep resentment against Nintendo or their idea of Nintendo and don't want to have their best games on Nintendo systems.

I see it as more related to the fact that 3rd party games don't sell well on Nintendo consoles because most of the fanbase is with MS/Sony.

But there is some problems in the relation between Nintendo and 3rd parties, but that's Nintendo fault. They were damn nazis during the NES days and affected severely 3rd parties profits with their dictatorial and crazy rules. With the modern budgets, that would kill them. The rise of Sony just happened because 3rd parties needed to push another company to the top to survive. Nintendo tought their games were the only thing that mattered, 3rd parties tought their games were the most important things. 3rd parties were correct.

Actually, Nintendo's crazy rules were pretty much the reason the 3rd parties existed after the 80's crash, as the reason for the crash in the first place was the lack of quality control - a little like the market today. With the N64, Nintendo had the belief that only a handful of developers would survive the rising development costs of 3D grafics, which is why they needed to limit the devs more, otherwise them too would go down the gutter as well - and looking at todays market, they were right (albeit a decade too early). Ironically, 3rd parties accuse Nintendo for the problems the 3rd parties created themselves.
