It would have created even better competition as long as MS gave Nintendo artistic freedom and Nintendo gave MS the freedom to create the hardware of their choosing.

Isn't that precisely why Nintendo dumped Sony? Necause they felt they were getting a raw deal?

And isn't Nvidia being that for Nintendo now with the Switch?

Well, partially. A MS/Nintendo alliance would also mean that MS released games, a focus that Nvidia does not have. That changes the dynamic quite a bit I believe.
