Maybe a little. They were big sellers, and I kind of liked some of them, but they marked the final departure of the core gaming market from Nintendo consoles. Up until the Wii, many of my friends who aren't total Nintendorks still bought their systems (the N64 and GCN). Following the Wii, they associate Nintendo with casual games only. Only my hardcore-Nintendo friends and family even know what's being released on the Wii U and 3DS. It's not even that [the others] are checking in on the situation and choosing to pass based on the games - they've already dismissed Nintendo altogether.
