Does Nintendo suck at making "Core gamer" consoles?

I define core anything that isn't casual, I.E. grandma playing Wii Sports once a month for a year and then never playing another game again. That would be casual. If you're a "gamer", like all of us, you are core in my opinion. 

Which as a result means Nintendo is actually quite adept in appealing to core gamers, they did it with Wii, DS and Switch.

In my definition of core, yes. There has never been a non-core Nintendo console. Wii had a slew of non-core gamers playing it, sure. As did the DS. But people like us were playing them too and doing so for hundreds of hours.
