I disagree; the only people I can think of that owned a GameCube were 12 and under. I don't think there was much of any "core" audience there at all. I don't think Nintendo ever really had this "core" demograph that people talk about. This was something invented by Sega and PC, carried to and expanded heavily by Sony, and Microsoft in English countries. Nintendo has always been more family oriented and social type people - except with GameCube which was mostly just kids.
As for winning this generation - there is no dispute, Nintendo dominated with 250 million Wii and DSs sold, and over 1.5 billion games. This is the most hardware any company has sold in a generation.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
