How many other 3D devices took that much market share? Looking at it like that, it was WILDLY successful. 


How many Bluray consoles had in 7th gen? Then PS3 was wildly succesful (and it did had 3D)... on its time then Virtual Boy was a Beast. And how many retro consoles there is this gen? Then Ouya is a success.


Don't be facetious. Nintendo sold 50 million of a product that almost every Television manufacturer, and some Mobile phone manufacturers, were unable to find a market for. That is not a failure of a product. 



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
