Setting the bar in comparison to the 360 or PS3 is a poor indicator of whether they're doing the best they can.

I agree with part of your assertion- comparing to the 360 and PS3 is not what Nintendo should be doing. However, you throw out a bold assertion in the middle that's patently false.
They're doing well compared to the PS2 sales numbers which is pretty much the gold standard as it was the best selling console ever and shows a reasonable saturation point for a globally dominating console. And they're doing it in a horrible world economy, worse than anything the PS2 was operating in.
So, yes, all of your other sentences are correct. The one in the middle, which is the crux of your argument, is just flat out wrong.
