If Nintendo appeals to such a large audience, then why has the WiiU and GC bombed? *oh snap*

Look at GBA and 3DS sales for the same generation. *Oh snap*

The longer you drag on this laughable claim that Nintendo games don't have broad appeal, the more you're embarrassing yourself.

Lol buddy you just dodged what I said. Answer it and keep it relevant - we are talking about home consoles, not portables here. 

If Nintendo games have broad appeal, then why the dire WiiU and GC sales? 

We now in the time of economic stagnations.

People who like Nintendo games are usually grown ups with a families/kids. Who have a lot of things to care and know what a liability is. So they unlikely to drop money for new game hardware in a hard times. Their support for the console will grow bigger since more games appealing to them will be out.

The 'core' auditory of PS4/X1 are gamefreaks who think only about new games. They easily bought the nextgen hype and now sitting with a mildly powerful machines with no new games to play, thats why they are so defensive on game forums. 

The winner of the generation will be the console which appeals not to small group of gaming fanatics (male, single, 16-32 years old, basement dweller) but to broader audience (as always). So we'll see how the things will turn out. But it seems to me this generation will not be an easy walk for anyone of a big three.
