Was Nintendo right to opt out of the graphics arms race?

I always thought the "Nintendo = weak" was a myth. For their respective eras; nes, snes, n64 and GC were all good kits. Many argued the S1 was weak, but I always thought that was silly. The S1 in 2017 for mobile hardware was quite nice. Only time Nintendo went budget was the Wii.

I didn't list the Wii U, because I have no idea what Nintendo was thinking there. Wasn't cheap but power was low. The expensive screen controller was stupid. That never should have gone out the door. It was the only hardware I did not care for. Even the Wii was super fun because the Wii Remote was awesome.
