We have to remember that for Sony to "succeed" they have to sell at least 80 million units.
----------------
What does that mean? From that number Nintendo has NEVER succeeded in a home console.
It's been projected through Sony's losses that for them to break even they need to sell 80 million PS3 units.
As for Nintendo, they have been 'successful' this entire time. Perrin Kaplan stated that "Nintendo has never once been not profitable". At least, that's how I measure success; profits. Getting more consoles out than your competitors is really just a sweet blow more than anything.
By life end:
- Wii- 100 million+
- Xbox360- 35~40 million
- PS3- 30 million
- PSP- 30~32 million ------------- FAILURE
- NDS- 85~90 million (Skeptical) - FAILURE
- NDS- 100 million+ (Optimistic) -- Success!
