I am a pessimist, but given the sorry state of the industry at the moment, even I'm often unrealistically optimistic. For instance, not even I dared to imagine this year's E3 would be this awful. Sadly, pessimism is reality when it comes to Nintendo these days.
You should have known me a couple of years ago; I defended Nintendo day in and day out, telling people "just wait til E3, they'll announce new stuff and blow us away" and the like.
These days, I am resigned to the harsh reality of today's industry, and the fact that my tastes are growing increasingly niche as the inexorable march of the Dudebro pushes everything that's not a realistic M-rated action game into obscurity. I may not like it, but that's the way things are.

No need for that, today's games are great, Nintendo games are great also like always were, you dont need to be such a pessimist only because Nintendo totally screwed WiiU and because is selling terrible, and because Nintendo is making some big changes that definitely affects WiiU/3DS.
Yes, this E3 was terrible and I was very dispaintment, but at E3 I realised that Nintendo is focused on NX for qite time now with launch set for 2016. and that they will continue support Wii U/3DS mainyle with previously announced games, smaller projects, spin offs and ports, and that was of reason of terible E3. But at E3 2014 for instance they had relly great show, and because of NX we can expect once again great show, just imagine full review of NX, full revile of Zelda, very likely new 3D Mario, Retros project, definitely some new NX games too..

I agree that Nintendo still makes great games, what I take issue with is their stubborn refusal to meet the needs of gamers who aren't already Nintendo fans. If they keep on like this, their audience will only continue to shrink, and they will go the way of Sega. I don't want that to happen.

Like already wrote, they need more mature games, new projects and third party exlusives, they done great job with Bayonetta 2, Fatal Frame V, Xenoblade X, even with Devils Third despite game is garbage, but we need much more of that, we also need something new, Retro needs to make something similar to Uncharted or TLoU, we need new Metroid Prime, some exclusive Resident Evil would be great again...we need all that, but Nintendo don't need to change in any way already great games that are still on of the best games in industry and that are still very popular with great sales. Also they need third party support, but they realised that itself because they saw they cant support one console itself.
Nintendo will never go way of Sega because Nintendo is staying always profitable, they had only two losses in their entire history and never had any debt, they making money even with Wii U that have terible sales. And now they planning how to expand their business with completely new platform, mobile games, and aggressive use of their IPs.
