Gamecube was absolutely a miss. It was neck-and-neck with the Xbox, and may have even been beaten out. To think, that was Microsoft's first console. Also, the Nintendo 64 was beaten completely by the first Playstation, which was also a first console, but for Sony. If anything, Wii and Switch are the odd ones out depending on where you want to set the cutoff.

But NES owned, SNES owned, Wii owned, Switch owned, Gameboy owned, and DS absolutely crushed it. I guess Nintendo had 3 consoles they didn't lead the race on.

Plus the virtual boy, but no one talks about it anyway.

I left that out because it was never really set to be a replacement of a different game system. Quite frankly, I'm surprised they even bothered trying to mass produce and sell the damned thing. Stereoscopic headache machine. The one red color was just to save a few bucks on production, too. I leave that in the junk pile with R.O.B and the Power Glove.
