It was far from the best overall console of 2013, unless you're only including "next-gen" consoles, in which case it's hardly a fair comparison. People don't purchase consoles just for the existing games - they need to see strong potential for years of enjoyment out of a system. This is all the more important if they can only purchase one. Nintendo's fundamental problem is that the market can tell their system's potential is severely limited - you're going to get basically zero third party titles (or shoddy downports), and Nintendo and its second party developers seem to put out software at a snail's pace.
I'm going to be pretty disappointed if Nintendo has to go third party because of this gross miscalculation by their leaders. It's so frustrating when the problems are so apparent from the outside and yet they seem so completely ignorant.
