But they are already available to anyone who wants them.  I get that people don't want to pay more money than necessary, but having to buy a console for it's exclusives is part of the costs associated with gaming.  It's not somehow unique to Nintendo.  There are a few Sony exclusives that I want to play, but I don't really want to pay $400 for what amounts to a subpar pc.  I would absolutely love to save that money and just play them on my computer.  Should I expect that?  Because I don't.  I only see these conditionals aimed at Nintendo, but they really could be applied to anyone.  

Wow, uh... this doesn`t seem very beneficial for Ninten. It`s def for Sony though. Ninten`s games on Sony would be majorly beneficial to them and would effectively kill Ninten in the hardware space. Meanwhile on the handhelds, Sony`s IPs wouldn`t help much. If anything, the 3rd party games the Vita gets would be much more beneficial. If Ninten could just do a standard powerful console and marketed right, they could do a lot better, maybe closer to the PS4`s success.

I like how it`s phrased how Ninten`s IPs need to be available to as many people as possible. People can always buy Ninten`s hardware and play the games that way if they really want to play their games. I hate how this comment is said so many times, like it`s a service Ninten has to do for everyone.

Actually competition is good for the market.
