If the Wii failed, that would had marked the end of their home consoles, and if by modest success for the DS, you mean around 50-70 million, it would had probably not been that good either. Yamauchi said it himself, that if the Ds failed they would sink in hell, but if it was a success they would rise into the heavens. So anything aside from a pure success of the DS would had caused Ninty to sink in hell.
