that makes no sense. YOu just said portables disprove my thinking, then you turn around and say you dont know why n64 GC and WIi U sold are selling the way they sold. Maybe people rather just have those games on portables? as those systems are generally cheaper anyway and can give them their Ninty fix? The portable market is NOT the same as the home console their is overlap but i cant imagine its that much. So no it doesnt disprove anything as it doesnt really do much for home consoles. So why cant Ninty be just as successful in the home console space? Different audience? stiffer competition? people rather play on portables? all of the above?
@bolded on the contrary i would say the popularity has gotten WORSE. Where are you getting that its gotten more popular? prove it. Not with numbers because 3ds and Wii U are tracking below their predessecors, Wii U much more so. Hell from Nes on forward Nintendo's popularity dropped until Wii and now we are right back to square one so to speak. hell it might be worst than ever before.
Edit: @bolded 2, LOL what? Nintendo lost popularity cause it lost games, period. Every major 3rd party jump ship to PS1 when Ninty got to big to listen to anyone. How do you think PS got popular in the first place? Come on man open your eyes. Sony popularity is def hindering Ninty's otherwise it would not be kicking its butt the way it is despite having a year headstart. The only consolation is that it is more different to PS4 than xone is. So it could stand out better.

My proof for the current popularity of Nintendo games are the sales of Nintendo SW on the portable systems (very high) and the sales of Nintendo SW on the Wii, including non-motion games such as Mario Kart and NSMBWii.

Wii was last gen. What about now? why arent they doing anywhere near as well as they did on Wii? Why is the system on track to be the worse selling Ninty home console ever? Hell why is the 3ds doing so much worse than DS? You cant ignore present factors and try to hang on past ones, that snot proof. Somethng happened to make people lose interest, or maybe they were never that interested to begin with.
