Why did American's lose more interest in Nintendo with the SNES than they did with the N64?

The same could be sasid about Europe and Japan. The SNES lost 150k in Europe from the NES, but the N64 lost 2.61m from the SNES. Japan gained 130k from NES to SNES but only gained 30k from the SNES to N64.

Wut....

Since in Japan, every console sold more than the last, the SNES sold 130k more than the NES, while the N64 only sold 30k more than the SNES.  The SNES saw more of an increase than the N64 did in Japan compared to last console sales despite gaming getting bigger in the fifth

You're looking at "rest of the world" sales. There was a massive decline from NES to N64.
