So what does Nintendo have to do to get good third party support? Simple. Make a system that is graphically competitive, sells well, and is easy and cheap to make games for.

And then Nintendo dies as a console manufacturer and still doesn't get third party support. At least right now they have Japanese low and mid-tier third parties in the palm of their hands, and are making porting to Switch an easy option for Indie - AA titles, despite the performance differences. 

The worst thing Nintendo can do is directly compete with the PS4/XBO because they are so far behind in brand-loyalty, online infrastructure, etc, and the market is already crowded. Nintendo is doing the right thing by pushing into the handheld market, and merging it with their home-console infrastructure. Making ports easy allows for moderate (albeit not the best) third-party suppport, the ball just has to get rolling.
