AI Summary

Nintendo’s least successful console was difficult to use and sold fewer than a million units. While Nintendo has seen many hits such as the Game Boy, DS, and Switch, it has also experienced missteps. Minor failures included clunky accessories like the e‑Reader and the Nintendo 64DD, which never launched outside Japan. However, whole systems have also flopped, a setback that hurts the brand more than accessory issues.
