Based on which precedent are you saying this? Which Nintendo console since the SNES had any 3rd party support? And the SNES was the most powerful console at the time when compared with the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive.

I'm not disagreeing that the PS4 would still outsell the X1 even if it was moderatly less powerful btw, but they have plenty of things going for them that Nintendo does not have for many generations.

It's not based on precident. It's based on common sense. Which Nintendo console since the SNES didn't have a crippling design flaw that abrupt halted easy of developement to their consoles. Answer: None of them. Not one. Nintendo had shitty third party support because it made shitty hardware for third parties. NX won't have that. The idea that third parties don't support Nintendo because of politics is the biggest lie ever told. Third parties don't support Nintendo because Nintendo hasn't supported third parties. No big mystery.

Yeah, it's competition crashing and burning before either of them hit their first million. That's literally it. Nintendo mess up. Microsoft messed up. Sony didn't. That's the secret to their success this generation. Next year, they are going to have to go against a Nintendo who doesn't mess up, and they are not going to fare well.
