So Nintendo should go 3rd Party, right? What about everyone else?

Had fun playing Nintendo games in my childhood. But the way Nintendo rehashes old games every gen is too much. I want them to go third party. Console market is crowded. And Nintendo has no place in it (if they continue to be "different").
And OP mentions about one platform aka death of quality gaming. Without competition gaming industry will be a boring place. Unfortunately many people, especially from PC gaming site fails to see it as they want to play console exclusives.

I'm confused. You don't like Nintendo "rehashes" but you want them to go third party? Without competition the gaming industry will be a boring place but, by wanting Nintendo to exit the hardware business, you're requesting an environment in which there's less competition?

Last time I checked there are several games that are in Wii U VC, NES remix and upcoming NES mini and not to include remasteres that appear every gen. I acknowledge that super Mario 3D world is not a rehash. But releasing same game several times in short time is true rehash. And Nintendo does it all the time.

As for Nintendo going third party; because they are not adding much as a hardware owner. They will be forced to innovate when competing with other software makers as third party developer. As for competition; market doesn't like vaccum. If there is space then someone more capable will take Nintendos place as hardware maker.
