Easy choice for me: 2000s. The lowest point in Nintendo's gaming history is probably 2010-2016 which is most of the 2010's. It's only 2017-2019 which makes this decade seem good. Meanwhile I think the Wii, GBA and DS were all great systems (in that order). The Wii, in particular had some of Nintendo's best first party output: Wii Sports & Resort, the return of 2D Mario, Excitetruck/bots, Punch Out Wii, etc.... The virtual console was an awesome idea, which they never should have abandoned. Motion controls were really fun (in the right games).
The main thing I want out of gaming is experiences that I've never had before, and with the Wii was an entire console about delivering original experiences. I want more of this from Nintendo.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
