Still, every other console Nintendo released previously was at or near the top as far as the power aspect was concerned. Well, Nintendo doesn't have to worry about their resources right now; and being that they make minimal bad decisions financially,

Alright well I have to point out that the NES/SuperNintendo were both graphically inferior to the competition and the GameBoy has always been way graphically inferior to the competition. The Nintendo 64 and the GameCube were the first two platforms in Nintendo history to sport superior hardware specs to the competition.

Now of course many argue that GameCube couldn't handle the visuals of the X-Box but I think RE4 proved that it was capable of alot more then it got credit for. But if you look at Nintendo's past especially the GameBoy versus GameGear the GameBoy:Colour VS GameGear then the GameBoy:Advance versus  that current generation of game consoles or even the DS versus PSP.

Nintendo has always been an innovator. N64 was simply innovating making the jump to 3D first. The Wii leading the way with motion controls, the DS with touch screen gaming etc...etc...

Where do you get that the NES and SNES were both graphically inferior to their competition?

The Sega MasterSystem was widely believed to feature superior graphical power to the Famicom (NES) and the Genesis is also widely believed to have been more powerful then the SNES. Of course you may mention StarFox and other games that utalized the chip set created to bring us spiffier graphics on the SNES. But in the end both platforms were inferior to the competition!

Anybody who compared the same games on each console could see the SNES was graphically superior.
