You said a game that can't be marketed as a system seller shouldn't be made. I said that most games aren't necessarily huge system sellers. I am right. In the sea of thousands and thousands of games, not very many can be considered games that actually sell a substantial amount of systems and can be marketed as such.
Mario Kart, Halo, Uncharted, Street Fighter, Zelda, Gears of War. These are games that sell systems. Most other games just accumulate with a library and make a console more appealing than before. These include games like Bayonetta, LittleBigPlanet, Sunset Overdrive, etc. They're not huge, record-breaking games in terms of sales but they're very good quality and they typically sell enough to make a profit.
Just because a game isn't a multimillion seller and doesn't sell hundreds of thousands of systems, doesn't mean they shouldn't be made. I assure you, very few games would be made if this was the case.
