I'm sure they'd savor the opportunity, but I don't know if they'd really be incredibly successful and picking most of those Nintendo-only gamers if Nintendo just disappeared. I imagine a good chunk of those people who bought a Switch almost exclusively for Animal Crossing would end up just becoming a mobile phone/tablet gamer instead of making the jump to Xbox/PlayStation.
But hey, the future is unknown, and my crystal ball is on the charger at the moment.
And there's gamers like myself, who mostly play games on PC but still have a Switch because while I can play a lot of those console games on my PC there's no offical way to play Zelda or Mario or the wide range of Nintendo first-party titles on PC. I think if Nintendo had a SEGA level implosion and started only being a publisher, whichever platforms Nintendo publishes for would become the heir to those consumers. I know that would be the case for me.
Assuming Nintendo steps away from the hardware biz, would they publish games exclusively to one console? Would they just start making mobile games? Would they sell on all consoles and PCs? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
