PS3 and PSP lost their generations too, to the Wii and DS. PS3 also lost Sony billions of dollars, even at 87 million its hard to see it as a win for them.

PS5 will indeed top 80 million easily, but as to whether it wins its generation, that breaks down into how one wants to define its Nintendo competitor, Switch or Switch 2, and how all three fare in terms of final sales.

I don't really care of wins the generation, and this has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. playstation 3 was a disaster for Sony but it still showed playstation home consoles were still in demand. It wasn't like GC, or wii u where Nintendo had to do something drastically different then thr competition because they could not compete with a traditional home console.

And what you're talking about has nothing to do with what I'm talking about.

There is clearly a place on the market for Nintendo hardware. Their successes far outnumber their misses. Their future is no more "off their own hardware" than Playstation or Xbox.
