It may have been fun, but it didn’t sell well.

Agreed, but it was comparable (in sales) to the Xbox and not too far behind the N64. It certainly didn't put Nintendo under, but of course you could say the same for the Wii-U. Financially you could argue it was a failure (and be largely correct), but IMO whether a console failed or not is more than just the raw units sold.

Also, I misspoke in my original comment - Galaxy was on the Wii, not the GC. Must have been thinking about Sunshine.
