3DS numbers make sense as kids for Pokemon and people who like portable systems. 3DS numbers are inflated a tad anyway. I know a few hardcore collectors like myself who have bought several limited edition versions. I think I am at 15 myself, lost track.
Off course people are not born Nintendo fans. They start of as kids through their parents. Then as they mature they vanish or stay. Most kids vanish these days as Nintendo is not the cool console anymore because it hasn't got the cool third party games everyone is playing.
Most hardcore Nintendo fans (the ones I am referring to who buy both) would be in their late 20s to mid 30s, mostly male who grew up with a NES/SNES. These are the most loyal ones left and don't give a fuck about status of being the cool kid as they matured beyond that.

A lot of text, yet none of that really has anything to do with the argument. I'll assume you understand that Nintendo games appeal to the general gamer but just don't want to outright admit it. Same with not needing to reveal most games years in advance to have a successful console. |
You're missing the point here. Yes Nintendo games appeal to the general gamers but Nintendo games alone will not move many consoles to them. Not everyone can afford multiple consoles. They need good 3rd party games that appeal to the masses. This is what i'm talking about, Nintendo needs to be able to show something solid to win those people in their presentation showing they fully support that game being on their system. The Marios, Zeldas, Pokemons are generational games that we all know will come eventually. It has been like that since the NES. These shouldn't be a big surprise to see at E3.
Sony 1st Party + promise of great 3rd party support (which they showed as their future offerings) is what is needed to convince people on the fence.
Yes the Switch has been successful but this is Nintendo in 2nd gear. They should be more aggressive and not coast. They could be making so much more money if they stepped it up.
