Let's take a look at Nintendo platforms and see how much they relied on 3rd parties

NES-15/20 top sellers Nintendo published

SNES-13/20 top sellers Nintendo published

N64-20/20 top sellers Nintendo published

GC-16/20 top sellers Nintendo published

Wii-14/20 top sellers Nintendo published, 1 other based on Nintendo ip

On average 78% of the top sellers on Nintendo hardware belongs to Nintendo

Nintendo's success/failures have always come down to their own output, if they are able to come up with new concepts and execute them properly they have success, if they have a poor strategy then they fail. Adding 3rd party support does little for Nintendo, of course they are welcome but Nintendo software has always been to main reason to own a Nintendo console.

Well considering every Nintendo console except the Wii has sold less than the one before it, Nintendo software alone clearly isn't good enough anymore.

Well considering, 3/5 of those devices were market leader, yes they are if Nintendo has a sound strategy with strong execution.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
