Seriously? You think overall sales are meaningless, you think market share is meaningless, but selling the most per generation somehow a useful statistic? On what grounds? Would the PS Vita be a successful console for Sony if the 3DS so 8 million total? Not a bit. It would still be a financial failure even though it sold the most of it's generation. On the other hand if the Wii sold 86 million, the PS3 sold 85 milliion and the X360 sold 84 million, would you consider the X360 a failure, because it "came third"? Hardly. Selling the most of a generation is not a great indicator of success at all. Yet somehow you think losing marketshare in a growing market is somehow not a better indication of declining success.
And here you are accusing me of spin.
But don't worry, goodnightmoon, it'll soon be over. If Nintendo continues on the path they're on, it's only a matter of years before the only way you can buy a new Nintendo game is on a device not made by Nintendo - just like Sega. I wonder how you'll spin that when the time comes...

And I wonder how are you going to spin reality once NX sell more than WiiU, because following your logic, that breaks the trend again, doesn it? if you break the trend twice, is still a trend?? And even the most pessimistic people right now thinks NX will sell more than WiiU so... don´t worry it will take no time until that supposed trend is broken... again.

It depends. Does the NX Home sell more than the Wii U? Or, does the NX platform sell more than the Wii U and 3DS combined? If not, then the trend isn't really broken, is it?
