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

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 .  I should check the numbers next time but I was sure that the numbers for these two consoles were much higher. 

Europe was a 3 way split between the home computers (Atari ST and Amiga 500 etc were pretty big as gaming platforms in the early 90s) and SEGA also had a solic market share with the Mega Drive. Nintendo has never really cracked Europe in the way it has other parts of the world apart from with the DS and Wii.
