Power does matter when it comes to running games optimally and running them at all. Wii would have sold way better if it was comparable in power to PS3 and Xbox 360 at the price it was at as then it would have had the amazing multiplatform games as well. The PS3 still sold well in 2016 but Wii didn't and that was because its hardware got outdated very quickly. So in terms of consoles power does matter to be able to support third party games.

Also the Wii U was powerful? Hahaha. If it was actually powerful for the time it came out i would have had better support and better sales.

I um...didn't say the Wii U was powerful...maybe read next time?

Of course power matters when running games optimally, where did I say it didn't? All I said was, it's not always the determining factor in any console race. 

Yes lol what the fuck I missed the not part. Anyways I think small power difference doesn't matter but when the power difference is so huge that the weaker console can't run the games that the stronger console gets then it does effect sales. So its the games that really matter but its power that decides what games the system gets.

As for N64 and GC they had other hardware issues such as the format used to distribute games and both had formats that were not large enough to store many games.
