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

Nintendo tried twice to beat Sony head on and failed badly. It also did not have the money Microsoft has to throw around so its blue ocean strategy is clearly a necessity.

And honestly it makes sense.  My least favorite generation was the GC, xbox and ps2...  nothing but a sea of "me too" consoles.  I prefer it when somebody opts for different.  Right now PC + Switch 2 is a hell of a combination.  I could be the odd one out, but I don't need 4 boxes that all do the same thing.

Yeah I felt the same way about the 6th gen, there were some great games but it didn't feel as exciting as the 5th gen before or the 7th gen after.
