Yes, influenced, but point is that Sega almost bankrupt, basically they left you without money, that's why they were forced to abandon hardware market. Nintendo is in totally different position, they are full of money and they are making profit this gen despite Wii U failed, Nintendo is currently expanding business.

I wonder if the WiiU failed financially, like, if the profit was smaller than the cost overall, RD and everything. If I ran these companies I would always make plans to turn a profit even in the darkest of the scenarios. I hate risk.

I think Nintendo with Wii U at is on positive zero, they didnt make some big profit but they are not in loss also. Nintendo is very financially aware, they are well known for that they can make profit from everything, you will never see Nintendo selling console at big loss for years like MS done with original Xbox or Sony with PS3, they always thinking how to make profit out of gate, I think Wii U is their 1st console that make them lose with launch selling price.
