Their handlhelds usually have better games then their home console counter parts. Why that's the case is another post. Pretty much every Nintendo handheld is universally loved while the home consoles are hit and miss for some. I mean how many people consider the Wii U a better device then the 3DS? Very very few. A lot of people say the DS is one of the best consoles of all time while the Wii is seen as good or even excellent but inferior to the DS.

Quality sells consoles and Nintendo handhelds are just better made than their home console counterparts.

Well its more like the competition is shit in the mobile gaming space. We all know mobile can't deliver a proper gaming expirence most of the time if its not an RPG, and the only thing that did something to dent ninty was the psp, but the psp was basically used as a pmp or ipod most of the time.

That doesn't make sense. The DS sold more than the Gameboy with less time and more competition. If competition was such a big factor then the DS should have sold less then the Gameboy. Nintendo just makes really good handhelds with really good software. That's why they sell so much.
