i definitely think so. these numbers are fantastic especially considering the low install base. there are no other publishers that can produce this many million sellers in a single generation. i think that shows that nintendo actually does quite well for themselves. also, you have to consider that the development cost for these games are pretty low, and almost every sale of the game is kept at the original price tag (since it takes so long for nintendo to drop the prices). that means that their 4 million sold earns a lot more than somebody elses 4 million sold.
so to answer the question, these numbers are amazing for nintendo and they can do well for themselves even just staying stagnant at these numbers.
