Eh, Nintendo was popular with the Wii everywhere, but that success is not something that they can just repeat like that as they've shown, actually I'd wager that the probability of MS or anyone else creating another success like the Wii was is about as high as Nintendo recreating it.

As for NES ans SNES, these are the total hardware sales of those according to vgchartz:

             
10 Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) 33.49 8.30 19.35 0.77 61.91
11 Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) 22.88 8.15 17.17 0.90 49.10

It was really only the PS1 that brought console gaming to the masses in Europe

4 PlayStation (PS) 38.94 36.91 19.36 9.04 104.25

I dind't know that NES and Snes numbers in europe were so low. It's probably because almost all my cousins had a NES/SNES. Thanks for the explanation :) . 


sometimes what we assume doesn't hold in reality... I also tought N64 and GC sold good because most of my friends had it and talked about it... just when I started coming here (after I bought PS3 I discovered here) I saw what a massacre PS1 and PS2 done.
