Can we agree Nintendo should go third party, now?

No ti isn't. can you literally name 1 example where a third party game has sold 0 on a platform when it has released on others? Every single Nintendo game will sell better if it was on PS/Xbox/Steam. You can argue if they could sell more to be worth it, or the ratio of sales but it's absolutely ridiculous to say it wouldn't sell better. A Bigger install base = more sales. If they released Zelda on PS4/Xb/Steam tomorrow will it sell 0? No. Will it take away some switch sales? Yeah, sure but definitely will be more sales than just being on Switch alone. 

5. They struggle to support enough to justify having a system for their games. A Ubisoft exclusive console would be a hard sell because they don't release enough games to justify an exclusive system. If Nintendo released 3 games a year that would easily be enough and still support their handheld.

wow thats a shitty argument, when did i say any game would sell 0 zero by being on PS/XB/PC? i said there is nothing to suggest that a Nintendo game would sell significantly higher on PS/XB/PC compared to Nintendo hardware.

how does releasing 3 multiplat games a year make mose sense than releasing those games on their own hardware? by releasing them on their own hardware they potentially move more hardware & accessories while also eliminating the need to pay royalties.

No you said bigger install base doesn't mean more sales. And now you're saying significantly more sales? 

 

I think being available to 200 million people instead of 10 million easily suggests significantly more sales. 

 

Because those 3 games will sell 5x more instead of selling them on just your own hardware. That is literally the entire crux of the argument.. Everyone knows console industry profits are driven by software sales.
