It really depends on software attachment. If you look at Wii U for instance, it has just over a 9 million install base, yet there are 2 games creeping toward 5 million in sales and a few passing the 3 million mark, not to mention a few more million sellers. The one thing Nintendo does have total relevancy on is quality software and IP, and that will never change. As long as their bread and butter handheld division stays strong (30 million plus), then I think Nintendo can easily survive on as little as 12-15 million home console sold.
