There are a couple reasons why Nintendo saw a turnaround.

1) The cheap price of the wii compared to the other systems.
2) wii sports
3) The failure of the Gamecube, owners wanted to upgrade faster then the Playstation owners.
4) A lot of Luck.

It's not luck, it's skill in development and marketing, unless you mean lucky that the PS3 and 360 sold for 599 US dollars, in which case, Nintendo was lucky because of that stupid business decision by its competition.


Its luck, no one could of imagined the wii would of took off like this. Nintendo never even thought it would sell like this. Nintendo also has some of the worst ads i have ever seen. You have a bunch of people jumping around acting retarded infront of their TV. Thats even worse then the Sony ads.


Nothing is as bad as Sony ads...

Honestly, I've never seen a company screw up advertisement so bad in my life.  Just downright awful.  The reason Wii ads sell is they show 2 things 1) People having fun and 2) People actually playing the game with in-game footage.
