Wii was an exception. NES and SNES barely had competition.

My mistake was saying 12 months. Wii U had Smash, MK, Mario 2D, Mario 3D, DKC, Zelda. This is "almost every big franchise".

Define "barely":

Sega Genesis

Lifespan
1988–1997 (Sega)

Units sold
Sega: 30.75 million
Tec Toy: 3 million
Majesco: 1.5 million (projected)

Sega is a distant 3rd In Japan during the 16 bit era.

The PC engine is the main competitor here 

SMD/PCE/SFC

3.5/8/17 milion units
