Sega lost their touch, I don't think the lower quality of their games in the 2000's was specifically because they stopped making consoles. Other companies have experienced the same

Dont agree, one of big reasons why Nintendo games are so good is because they make hardware with mind on their games, their platform gives them lota opportunities and freedom that they wouldn't have if they are third party, Nintendo games that are not on Nintendo hardware would have lower quality than todays Nintendo games.

But I find whole this thread and this talk unnecessary, because Nintendo will not go third party, much bigger chances are that MS will pull up from gaming.

Probably the biggest element here that I wish to have mentioned, but wasn't sure how to say it. Nintendo has been notorious for decades when it comes to how they want to deliver their IPs. They try to integrate hardware with their software in mind. That's why we got games like Wii Sports, Super Mario 64, Brain Age, Nintendogs, Splatoon, Super Mario Maker, etc. From what I've heard, one of the reasons why their planned collaboration with Sony on creating an enhanced SNES w/CDs fell through was because they feared that Sony would have control over their IPs. Some would think that their YouTube policies and C&Ds (such as shutting down Mario mods and suing the guy selling alcohol for a party at a convention while posting official Pokemon render art) are in relation to their need for control. Whether that's right or wrong is another discussion.

Sorry if you feel this thread was unnecessary. I was kinda hoping to learn more about what some people think about this situation in a more focused discussion rather than reading it in bits and pieces from other discussions.
