just because its the norm doesnt mean its good. Disaster is a strong word, but half of Ninty's console history? Yeah it aint great. Especially looking at your numbers. that means it declined gen after gen while others have incresed. GC flopped, much as I like that console, 10 mil more aint great. Especially following Wii U's success one would think that at least 50% of those buyers would stick around

ontop of that you also have to take into consideration the explosive growth the industry had in the mid 90s. The NES and SNES were huge success and phenoms when they launched. Then the PS1 launched and stole the show expanding the market. The consoles now a days are selling to more people in more markets and matching 15+year old systems isnt great.
