Can we agree Nintendo should go third party, now?

This question is common because

Nintendo is the 3rd among them

Nintendo has the smallest userbase

Nintendo consoles are weak and deprecated in graphics

Nintendo online features are poor

Wii U bombed

Nintendo isn't making enough profit since Wii U release

 

And now let's pay attention to Switch and wait :)

This is ignoring the side of their business that makes up 80% of their userbase, adding that to the mix negates your first two points.

If Nintendo should go 3rd party because of Wii U bombing than Sony should go 3rd party because of Vita failing.

Nintendo had 2-3 years of losses recently but the previous 25-30 years were profitable, if you are profitable as a hardware manufacturer for 5 generations you dont just jump ship after 1 generation of moderate losses. Even so, by that logic than Microsoft & Sony should have went 3rd party after the original Xbox & PS3 lost them billions.

Not liking their hardware or online services are legitimate reasons I suppose.

I don't agree that Nintendo should go third party, I was just replying why the question is so common. Many usually bring this topic up because of those reasons.
