And it seems you didn't understand at all what I meant. 

Nintendo as a game developer has nothing to improve to you if you feel like this and that's ok. I can even agree with you on that. 

On the other side, Nintendo as a console maker has many ways to improve.

I already posted how more than 50% of Switch games sold on the console are Nintendo first party games. That's a double edge sword and if you can not spent a minute trying to understand what I was trying to say with that, I can't help you.

No, Nintendo is not doomed and it will never will. They are by far the most successful gaming software company regarding gaming sales on consoles, but there's an explanation as why each main Playstation home console has sold more than 85M and 3 of them more than 100M when Nintendo has lived its ups and downs in this regard. I know, every time I say something like this and use the word Nintendo it triggers some angry and offended people right at me in this forum but I was just being critical in a constructive way like I am with Sony and Microsoft too. If you don't agree with me is fine, you don't have to, but you don't need to remind me Nintendo is good at video games... 

The problem is you didn't really say much to begin with and ignored certain factors with your post like how on Switch third parties don't need nearly as many sales as they do on other platforms which is why third party support keeps growing and why companies like Bethesda keep releasing games on the platform as well as a lot of games coming from indie developers or being AA. It's not hard to see why he didn't get what ever it is you're trying to say because Nintendo's platforms don't rely on third parties and haven't in a very long time so the double edged sword you try to paint here doesn't really exist as GC had more support than both N64 and Wii and sold less than both its always been the concept of the platform that has sold it the first party games then end up selling well because they tend to be built around the said concept or utilize its features and if the concept is appealing the platform does well which causes a situation third parties can't afford to ignore.
