I know this is pretty late, but I don't think you realize just how much money Nintendo has. They have more than enough to withstand multiple Wii U level failures, not to mention that they are still making a killing off of their 3DS profit margins and software sales.

They may be able to survive heavy losses, but that doesn't mean losses are preferable. Didn't they post losses for the last few years, up until just recently?

Nintendo has more than enough money to be able to include a non-proprietary bluray drive in their console. I doubt it would effect their profit margin much at all, and it would at least allow it to keep up with the PS4/One when it came to amount of storage available for games. It's the least they can do since there's no HDD in the console. Not to mention that Nintendo tends to sell hardware at a big profit margin (much bigger than Sony or Microsoft), and the slight loss they made over the 2012-2013 period was easily overshadowed by the great profit they made this fiscal year and the Wii years.
