Was that before or after it was revealed as a hybrid?

I remember saying that I would consider it as a failure if it sold less than 40-50m because it was a hybrid. 40m for a home console only would be a great success for Nintendo.

40m sold lifetime for any console is terrible. Especially considering Sony at its worse still sold 90mil+, why lower the standards for Nintendo?

I said success for Nintendo. If Nintendo could motivate 40m people to buy one of their home consoles after the Wii U, that would be amazing.

Compare it if the Vita successor would sell 40m. That would be a great success for Sony too.
