Did this happen with the NES when super NES came out? That’s the only real comparison I can think of with Nintendo having back to back successful consoles.
Nope. Parents were new to the idea of upgrading a console in the first place and they focused most of their non-child advertising in telling parents there is a genuine difference even if they already have a Nintendo Machine. Genesis had also come out 2 years earlier and NES prices dropped to compete in the meantime.
