Care to explain why? Nintendo are still making insane amounts of profit, moreso than ever. You could say alot of that is down to the GBA, but you can't deny the amount of profit they are making from the GC. For starters, Nintendo are making a tidy profit on selling the GC alone, add to that the profit they make from their games, royalties from 3rd party games, memory cards, controllers, etc.

If Nintendo went third party, the only profit they would make from the home console business is from their own games. They'd probably have to pay royalties to either MS/Sony. And they just won't make as much profit as they are now.

Ofcourse, it would probabaly be better for the gamers if Nintendo did go second (or if all the third parties made games on a Nintendo system), but that's debatable.
