I should have said Nintendo home consoles; handhelds are obviously an exception.

The Wii is also an exception, because it captured a huge non-gamer part of the market.  That market has now moved on, putting the Wii U exactly where it should be in the declining trend.

Doesn't change the fact that it happened and shouldn't be ignored.

It did happen, and it should be considered, but so should everything.  Saying Nintendo is fine because the Wii did so well is in fact ignoring a lot of factors.  All of the solid evidence points to a downward trend, and literally every system except the Wii supports that theory.  The exception can be explained, thus still supporting the theory.
