Another fact is that Nintendo released 4 handheld consoles and only one of them outsold its predecessor. 

That's hardly a fact when in just 4 years GBA sold almost the same as Game Boy in its first 9 years.

Maybe you should look up the definition of a fact. It's still a fact even if they're sold over different periods.

It's still a lie to suggest they were selling more handhelds in the GameBoy era than later, the amount of devices per year they sold skyrocketed with GBA and then NDS was absolutely epic, there is no decline pattern in the handheld department except for 3DS, and one does not make a pattern.

It's 100% not a lie. It's a factual statement. They did sell more Gameboys than Gameboy Advances. Period.

They sold more Gameboy Advances annually than they did Gameboys, but that isn't what I said, is it?

i think people are giving Reggie too much credit. He is probably saying what his Japanese masters told him to say. He is a puppet

A happy puppett, even if it isn't his own choice, he enjoys a lot trolling American Ninty gamers.
