Nintendo doesn't try to compete with the PS and Xbox which are 'hardcore gamer' consoles, they have a niche and it's perfectly cornered, they produce and release family friendly games on a family friendly console. The Nintendo 'style' of graphics might not appeal to everyone, but it does resonate with a lot of players and they will defend it to the death!
While it's not ultra realistic, you can't really deny the fact that games like Luigi's Mansion 3 and Yoshi's Crafted World look fantastic. I for one would take stylised graphics and great gameplay over an ultra realistic shooter.
