100% true.  Sega has been niche for decades.  Literally decades.  

CD was a failure 

32x was a failure 

Saturn was a failure 

Dreamcast was a failure 

I don't recall any of their portables doing much either.  

Sega had one major success...  the Genesis from the 90s.

Edit

Top 20 all time platforms...  Sega has one...  the genesis.  MS has multiple.  

One hit wonder.  

Xbox was made to counter Playstation, yet Microsoft has lost every single time to Playstation on sales, so it failed every single time, and 3 out of 4 times it lost very, very badly.

So Xbox is a no hit wonder, right?

Xbox is ranked behind Playstation for sure.  But Xbox is more successful than Sega.

Sega is also a no hit wonder, at least using your criteria.  Sega lost to Nintendo every single time.  

Like I said, Sega is grossly overrated.  They competed that one time in that one game, nothing more.  

But let us run with your criteria and game.  Sega was made to compete against Nintendo.  Sega has 1 console in the top 20.  Nintendo has 9.  The Gamecube, considered a commercial mess, sold more than any Sega hardware outside the Genesis...  let that sink in.  If the GC were a Sega console it would be the second best selling console for them....  

Like I said, Sega is laughably overrated. 

If the question were "ps2 or xbox" you are damn straight my answer would be the ps2. 

Edit

I just realized the Wii U outsold the DC.  The Wii U also outsold the Saturn.  The GC sold more than the DC+Saturn combined....  Nintendo failures still beat Sega.
