Nintendo is in tip top financial shape
You are acting like they are like Blackberry and teetering on the brim of bankruptcy
When I say tank, I don't necessarily mean financially, but in drawing ANY 3rd party support? But you can't think their cultural relevancy stays intact if we get WiiU for 3 straight generations.
They can't confuse Capcom, who supports the 3DS well, into supporting the switch, or a failing platform. The risk here is that the Switch will confuse consumers (again), Nintendo DOES actually go all in with the Switch - Mobile+Console gaming, but the gamble does not pay off for one reason or another...then Capcom pulls support for everything.
That's kind of what i mean. Financially they'd be fine, but if they lose the little support they have left, I doubt they could support a system alone. The Wii U kind of proved that, and they'd lose the cash cow of mobile gaming.
It's simple: The WiiU, outside of the SNES, probably had the single best lineup of Nintendo gaming. A on of top titles and creativity, and very very Nintendo in design. Yet the console failed. I think, or hope, that Nintendo realized as good as they are, they cannot support a console on their own.
