How about the following as an idea for how to reform MMP in New Zealand.
Have a second round runoff between the two top parties if one of them fails to get over 50% of the vote at the first attempt. The winner in the second round would be awarded additional seats to ensure they could govern alone.
In this scenario, the minor parties still get seats in parliament but they're not able to make unreasonable demands of their much larger political rivals.
