Legitimately! It’s been Nintendo’s whole thing and they’ve been amazing at it.
With handhelds especially, they have been wildly successful experimenting since the original Game Boy in 1989. Which makes the Switch’s “eventual” success mentioned in the article even more short-sighted.
The interesting thing to me about the GameCube and Wii U is that they were followed up by incredibly successful hits. The less successful consoles had to walk so their more radical follow-ups (the Wii and Switch, respectively) could run.
