It's a defective product. With so many boneheaded decisions going against it. That's not a sign of success. You paid all that money for one game. A game that's available elsewhere. Cool.

Lack of games, so what? I'm sure other people who invested in it care. I'm sure they're not too happy about overpaying for defective product either. They didn't make the thing specifically for zap.
I don't have to defend it, I'm having fun with Zelda, and that it the honest truth. The Genesis launched with 5 games, sometimes things happen, and the Pro Controller addresses the problems you stated. I also assure you that I'm not a Nintendo fanboy. I didn't get a Wii U for over a year after launch, and have never even owned a DS/3DS. If anything, I plead guilty to being a bit of an Atari fanboy.

It's not only their base that's buying it. Selling out everywhere with this many systems in stock is well beyond their fanbase. The link wasn't BS, and calling it the most successful in years wasn't referencing Nintendo systems, but all systems.

You also implied the 3DS was a failure. 65 million units sold makes it #10 all-time.

I have pointed out its flaws and shortcomings. It's far from perfect. It's under-powered, and the controllers are way over-priced. Online services should have been ready from the start. Honest questions: Is there anything you like about it, and do you think it will fail (like the Wii U)? I'm glad to have your opinion in this discussion, even if we haven't agreed on anything yet.
