If I open a beach and then put glass shards all over the sand, then yes, it's my fault no one will visit. Especially when people remember my previous project: "glass shards on playground".

Yeah, people make strong metaphors like these. But be specific: what are the glass shards that Nintendo put out these days?

Hardware and 3rd party relations mostly.

While Sony and MS are specifically building their machines for 3rd party, Nintendo builds their machines for Nintendo and Nintendo alone. So of course it's their fault when no one wants to visit glass shards beach.
