With home consoles. If they're unwilling to adapt then yes. I think that it's hardware is what's holding it back from making more money. Their brand is still strong and their IPs are still popular. 

Then we are looking at a variation of "Nintendo is doomed."

Still no. "Nintendo is doomed" means it failed as a company. It going third party is not the same as the company dying. It's the opposite. I think going third party is a more viable business model for nintendo than making hardware to sell their software through. If the hardware doesn't sell well, it's limits how well they do on software. Nintendo is certainly playing around with the mobile market. It's not much of a stretch to say they're likely looking into going third party and weighing the pros/cons of it.
