Perhaps the N64 where they owned the competitive shooter crowd on consoles with games like Goldeneye & Perfect Dark? Or the Gamecube where they secured Resident Evil exclusivity, greenlit Eternal Darkness, published Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes and localized Tales of Symphonia? Or on Wii where they secured Monster Hunter Tri as an exclusive? Or maybe the Wii U when they funded games like Bayonetta 2 & Devil's Third which would have been scrapped otherwise?

Also during those times created hardcore games like Smash Bros, Wave Race, 1080 Snowboarding, Pikmin, Fire Emblem, Geist, Advance/Battalion Wars, Metroid Prime, Wonderful 101, etc.

Oki and ?

N64 was a hell of a system that Ninty them selves crippled by greed and arrogance.  N64 with Cd and pro 3rd party mentality would have been PS2 just a gen earlier.  N64 failure had nothing to do with focus on core or hardcore.
