As I've shown, the real exceptions are the N64 and the cube, they failed to sell because they were largely overshadowed in visibility by their nearest competition, the Playstation.

Nintendo now has more visibility and the PS and XB are now stuck in a corner to sell games to one audience, mostly dudebro and adult males. Nintendo is very well capable of selling hardware in this environment.

It's clear to me.

This "corner" they are stuck in is the absolute majority of the audience that games on consoles...

Sure games for that audience are selling well now, but the sales in that market are also stagnating now, Watch Dogs being the exception because gamers were starved.

GTA V broke records, COD games sell extremely well, Titanfall sold very well. I could name you many more, but you seem to be unwilling to accept that the majority of gamers nowadays look for an experience in their games when they buy it for such a lot of money.

Gaming isn't a kids' hobby anymore like it was in the 80's when Intendo used to dominate. That has become very apparent.
