The whole 'irrelevant' angle almost seems like sour grapes from the gaming press to me. Nintendo tend to flat out ignore the gaming media (except for Reggie, who loves it). They don't sponsor websites, or spend millions on advertising, or pay for good reviews.
The gaming media is like those vines that grow around other trees in the Amazon, helping to support them, but ultimately unable to exist on their own. And Nintendo is a tree that can stand on it's own and somehow rejects the parasite. And because the Nintendo tree doesn't need the parasite vine, the parasite vine tries to poison it, so that their host trees can steal Nintendo's dirt.
That metaphor got away from me.
Nintendo being irrelevant = sour grapes from shitty developer and bad businessman
Nintendo will always be able to make money selling Mario Kart, Zelda, Smash Bros etc. Whether or not they are a big player, or if they'll be doomed to being the 2nd console brought out 3/4 times a year to play the exclusives.
