Yeah, but they did that by selling out to casual gamers and little kids, and then they flopped with the Wii U. That's why people like to joke about them making consoles.

The Wii was fine for social party games, it was groundbreaking in that regard. It was shit for serious gaming, IMO.
This thing looks kind of interesting, though I have to wonder how much inertia Nintendo has to overcome by giving up the non-casual console gaming space to Sony and Microsoft.
