Its not just Sega (jointventure with Sammy) look also at SNK (bought by chinese), Atari (bought by french), NEC/Hudson (bought by Konami).

Everyone who gave up hardware will fall lower and lower history has proven. Do you think Sony and MS would keep making and publishing games if they would stop making hardware? They would sell off their studios and completley leave gaming the way NEC did.

Ounce Nintendo would go third party you wouldnt see franchises and games being published and funded by them like Bayonetta, Fire Emblem or Xenoblade. They would be pretty worse than they are now with new IPs. More Amiibos, Remasters etc.



They gave up out of failure not choice.

All of them should be a warning where nintnendo is heading.  Following their stubborn foot steps.  Hardware sales will fall so low they wont even make money of software they will lose billions.  Will be forced to abandon hardware and will enter 3rd party from a weak standing.  

All failed as they were to broke to weather the transition, ninendo could easily pull it of now.  5 years from now if nx fails and new handleld severly underwhelms they may lack the capital to transition succesfully to 3rd party.

They could die just like all of those did.
