Nintendo has been marketleader in every generation except PS2 and PS4 where it had about 2/3 sales of the PS family. The reason is that a lot of people only consider either one or the other of Nintendo's consoles at a given time, which is not a true comparison. You have to sum all consoles per gen as follows:
- NES (Won)
- SNES vs Genesis (49.1M vs 29M Genesis)
- N64+Gameboy Family vs PS1 (118.69 GB + 32.93M N64 vs 102.49M PS1) OR (74.91M GB 1996-2002 + 32.93M N64 vs 102.49M PS1) See source below.
- GC + GBA vs PS2 (21.74M GC + 81.5M GBA vs 159M PS2)
- Wii + DS vs PS3 + PSP (101.63M Wii + 154M DS vs 87.4M PS3 + 82.5M PSP)
- WiiU + 3DS vs PS4 + Vita (13.5M WiiU + 76M 3DS vs 117M + 16M Vita)
- Switch vs PS5 (143.5+M Switch vs 62+M PS5)
Nintendo has been contested leader in GC + GBA and WIIU + 3DS, 2 gens, all other generations it won.
