How many NX's does Nintendo need to sell for it to be considered a success?

It's not. For them 25 would be a failure. And they would be right. It's 40+ millions

25 is probably too close to the GameCube which Nintendo has basically admitted was a failure.

But 30 would in line with the N64, which is a clear notch better.

The N64 wasn't really a success either. It did really well in the USA, but it was a failure in europe and japan.

I still think 30 millions wouldn't cut it. We're not talking about an "ok results", we're talking about "success".  

Here are the home consoles from Nintendo that are considered success:

-Wii 100 million

-NES 60 millions

-Snes 50 millions

 

You can't go lower than 40 millions lifetime.
