That depends. They don't really need exclusives, they just need good games in general. But if they want to increase their marketshare and outsell the competition then they are going to need more good games than the competition, which means exclusives.

So as long as they're willing to settle for 2nd place (or worse) every generation then no, they don't need exclusives.

Need a good mix of both 3rd party and 1st party like Nintendos situation.

So you mean that XB1 is in the opposite situation where it lacks exclusives compared to Wii U that lacks multiplats?
