Yes, Nintendo:

Wii
DS
DSi
DSiXL
3DS
and soon to be
Wii U
and Modified Dual Stick 3DS

That's only 3. DS, Wii and 3DS. DSi, DSIXL are both DS's.

both of you are wrong. DS,DSi, AND DSXL are platforms that support the same games, so they're more like remodels then different platforms. Different models for different taste.

3ds is a separate platform like psp a psvita. you can't play 3ds games on ds or the other models, and modifications or peripherals are not consoles.

Sony will be the first with 5 consoles when PS4 releases.

DSi and DS were different platforms - but DSi and DSi XL were the same platform. DSi had exclusive games available at retail, and also exclusive downloadable games - although, people bought DSi for the DS platform, so it doesn't really count in that respect - no retail DSi game was major - so for its intended purpose, DSi is more or less a DS with extra features and platforms available.
