Galaxy 2 sold less than Galaxy one, was not a system seller and sold far, far less than NSMB, that's a flop

Really?  So Nintendo should do nothing to maintain diversity in its library or cater to massive niches within its fanbase?  Sounds like a great business strategy you got there.

Massive Niches, lol, what massive niche was activated by Galaxy?  NSMB Wii got that Niche and more.

 

Face i, games like Galaxy, Other M and Skyward are wastes , so yeah, my business strategy would have not only resulted in more sales, but would have kept momentum going

Four million is huge for Galaxy 2.  It is only 1.5 million behind Galaxy when launch aligned.

From the sounds of things, you strategy would have Nintendo fans leaving in droves.  Not every game can have the same goal or appeal.  Some games are made to diversify the library, or cater to certain groups within the fanbase.  Not every game can be Wii Sports, and if it was, you would bore the expanded audience and chase away more traditional gamers.
