No, it's because they're such a great developer. Only they can create the perfect hardware and then perfectly optimizing everything for it. Without the perfect hardware to their perfect games, their games would only be half perfect.

All this years and you still don't get it.

Oh, I do get it. I know exactly why Nintendo "needs" their own hardware and I also know exactly why people say that they need it. I just don't want to spell it out.

But if they were a great developer they'd be able to make perfect games regardless of the hardware. Rockstar, Blizzard and Valve (at least when they used to make games) seem to have no trouble doing it.

You might want to ask Goodnightmoon about the real reason. He seems to get it better than I do.
