I think Nintendo should go third-party, yes. Frankly, I think it makes no sense that Mario cannot sell to 2/3 of gamers unless they shell out $200 to $300 for hardware.

I'm in a decent financial position, so I don't mind buying Nintendo hardware just to play 5-6 games per generation. But, I know lots of gamers that would love to play BotW, Kart, and the like, but aren't willing or able to spend the money on hardware just to play those few games. I suppose one could say the same about any exclusive franchise (Halo comes to mind as one that tons of gamers would play if was available on other platforms). But, really, the Mario universe is the most important in gaming, and would sell like Hotcakes on XB and PS.
