FY 2012-2014 are the only times that Nintendo has posted losses and alot of that comes from them selling their hardware at a loss for pretty much the first time. Basically as long as Nintendo hardware is sold at a profit than Nintendo makes a profit so I see no need for them to go third party in the near future. |
Because they miss out on huge amounts of software sales by keeping their games exclusive to a console with a very limited install base. Also they could still make controllers and accessories. They could easily sell Amiibo on ps4/xone for example, plus a tablet controller, motion controller you name it.
Also Nintendo could easily strike a deal with either Sony or Microsoft that would lower or even dismiss any royalty's they would have to pay.
