Nintendo's reason or not I don't know, but that their home consoles were in continuous decline, bar one, is true.

Just fact is that that isn't true, Wii was not decline, so it accurate to say but that their home consoles were in continuous decline.

Yes it is accurate, one piece of data does not disprove a trend. 4 out of 5 following this pattern is a clear correlation.

To distance yourself from any personal feelings let's try something else, let's look at some made-up data from temperatures.

Average Temperature Februrary

Feb 2010 - 6.7c
Feb 2011 - 6.9c
Feb 2012 - 7.0c
Feb 2013 - 7.1c
Feb 2014 - 6.6c
Feb 2015 - 7.2c

Would you really say that the statement "February is getting warmer" is false? Due to a single year?
