If I was Nintendo, I would strike a deal with either Microsoft or Sony where they make exclusive games for their console. Nintendo would fund their own games and get either all, or nearly all of the profit for selling those games. How would Microsoft or Sony benefit? Simple...
They would widen their audience and provide more games for the consumers, which in turn would increase the user base and cause more consumers to buy the games published by Sony/Microsoft.. Even the consumer would win because they could then play Nintendo games without buying their console.
