why?  thats not ther modus operandi.

Third party.  They need 3rd party to get back into the game and if Sony and Microsoft go 4k with  more powerful consoles, doesn't it seem likely that Nintendo could fall back into the Wii U slump if developers embrace more powerful consoles?

yes, that's what will probably happen, but as I have been told by plenty of Nintendo fans, Nintendo doesn't compete with Sony and MS. They make toys, not game consoles, so it's fine.
