Take from it what you will

"Back off, man. I'm a scientist."

Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist. Especially if you think the moon landing was faked.

Hmm... it looks like Nintendo has always had the cheapest console on the market (relative to the time)
but Nintendo doesn't always win, so there are clearly other large factors to sucess other than price. My guess is that marketing, Console/game price, and 1st party development are the most important factors for sucess.
