Neither, Nintendo knows that no matter what they make (as long as it isn't a red brick you tie to your head) that ~20 million or so fanboys (like me) will buy it any way. They purposely design these machines so they will make back their R&D off of the fanboys. This is why Gamecube lost the "war" but was still a success. Plus they know software will sell oodles.

If they sold 10 million Wii consoles, then they still would have sold close to 6 mil Smash, 6 mil MKWii, etc.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
