why though? If you have a failed system where you lose only like 5% of your company value (most likely, because even if the NX 'flopped' its not as if it would mean Nintendo wouldn't sell a decent amount of them to break even), why the sudden rush to go third party?
I mean just as an example look how long it took Sega. Sega was losing money and in debt for a few YEARS before they even decided to do that. Nintendo on the other hand, even if the NX did poorly, would be still way in the positive
people like to paint it black and white but its just not. Nintendo has too much clout with their IPs to feel pressured to go third party simply due to a few misteps.
Also bear in mind that a lot of Nintendo stock is owned by the the founding family of Nintendo and I am not entirely sure the board would even go for it
