Nintendo was never doomed

Nintendo were never doomed... but they sure were on that road.

Nintendo is developing games based on their IPs, for the first time ever, on iOS and Android. Why? Because the pressure of investors and a failing console was too much for them to handle. So, they gave in.
It wasn't the money in the bank that made investors relax.
That old idea that Nintendo has enough money to develop a few more failures, it's just that, a nice, comforting idea.

Wii U was an absolute failure. 3DS, despite doing respectable numbers, when compared to the likes of DS and GBA, not only does it look bad, it shows that those days are over for Nintendo - bar a new DS/Wii like feature.

Switch might be doing great, but that's not enough to spell success.
For now it's selling on 3/4 system sellers and a really cool concept. But what about a year or two from now?

Also, what if Nintendo never develops a 3DS successor?
All pressure will lie on Switch. And Nintendo is known for failing in the segment.
