Seems like Nintendo is doing just fine...

Actually Nintendo has been doing better.  The NPD numbers for July were really solid for them. 

Gamespot:
[QUOTE]"Four SKUs for the 3DS would make the top ten software list when ranked on an SKU basis: Tomodachi Life, Pokemon Y, Pokemon X, and Mario Kart 7. With the addition of Mario Kart 8, five of the top ten SKUs this month were published by Nintendo and helped drive Nintendo into the top video game publisher spot for July 2014."[/QUOTE]

I think everyone knows this is kind of a "stay afloat" generation for Nintendo, but they're certainly moving in the right direction, and I think we should remember their most succssful period in company history (and in both handhelds and consoles for them) followed their last bad performer with the Gamecube.  When the DS phone, or the combined tablet/handeld/console they release comes out next generation, all they need to have done is righted the ship enough to stay afloat.
