Will Nintendo's third party problem finally kill the company?

The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).
Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.
Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.

Nintendo completed its share repurchase and set its secondary offering price at 8,347 yen ahead of March 16 delivery.

Nintendo filed a lawsuit in the United States Court of International Trade.
Nintendo of America is suing the United States government over the sweeping tariffs President Donald Trump put in place last year, according to a complaint filed Friday in the U.S. Court of International Trade and obtained by Aftermath.
LOL I read this on gaff, will they refund the money back to the gamers? highly unlikely. Didn't they just raise prices and pass it onto the gamers? Only Nintendo would send out the Ninjas to the US government.
If they don't fill the space with their own games it could kill their home console hopes. Third party is important but if you have a very low price system and release your own big games on it you can do very well (for example the Wii). On the other hand a more expensive system with no third party can be damaging (for example the gamecube/64). I think Nintendo need to decide; either go for the third party support or drop the price by a lot and release more of their own stuff
Third party support has been one of their biggest problems. Hopefully having the install base grow will get them on board.
Nintendo need third party support. All they have is ubisoft. No ea and no activation not good. I would still buy one if it went Down to $99 tho lol
Nintendo hasn't had much in the way of third party support on their home consoles since the SNES.
Yeah, it sucks, but... it's the status quo these days, and has been the status quo for nearly two decades.
Will Nintendos third party problems finally kill the company?
For a site called gaming precision you'd have thought they would do their homework. Flamebait article, ridiculous statement and.....just no.
