This thread has mostly referred to Nintendo home consoles. Handhelds are an entirely different beast. I probably should have prefaced my posts with home console tags, but I assumed it was given based on the context.

 

The Wii proves you wrong. There is no way you can know exactly how many were core gamers and how many were casual gamers that bought it. The sales of the WiiU or the GC doesnt reflect in any way how many core gamers owned a Wii.

 

The Wii is an exception to a downward trending Nintendo home console slump. I attempted to provide context, which may or may not be accurate, on why the Wii sold so much better than other Nintendo home consoles. It's much more plausible to assume the trend and explain the Wii than to assume that Wii is the standard and explain the trend..
