I honestly think the "software is everything" mantra is actually kind of false these days.
Every system has or will eventually have more good games than any reasonable person (ie: a person with any kind of life) has time to play.
So that really isn't the sway point it once was. There aren't systems like the 3DO, Jaguar, 32X, Sega Master System, etc. anymore. If the library is everything then Wii U should be outselling the PS4 easily as the PS4's library right now is nothing to write home about.
You have to have a lot of the other details right. And the NES did beat the Sega Master System, but the NES didn't beat the Genesis ... because Nintendo brought out the Super NES to take on the Genesis. Being a generation behind the existing machines is something that isn't a winnable formula unless you have some kind of disruptive gimmick like the Wiimote to change things up.
Which the Wii U doesn't have (tablet pad is a huge failure in this respect).

its always been false. Now we have overwhelming evidence. to the point where no one can deny it.
