      Nintendo’s been this way for as long as I’ve been alive, though. They always succeed in spite of being greedy assholes because the average person simply doesn’t care.

              Okay and people often had both. Point still stands that N64 and GameCube were household names at the time. Break out by region and the numbers are closer.

              No one is saying they sold more. Plus the PS2 was still being sold even after the PS4 was made. From a financial perspective they sold just fine at the time in most countries.

      Or rather everyone else has stopped way below so that Nintendo is still at the top.
