I already said DS/GBA were a different era, where mobile tech like decent gaming, and internet didn't really exist, they were the only good form of good entrainment on the go, why do you think we went from 230-240 million psp/ds to 84 million psp/3ds it was mobile gaming/ entertainment making it's mark.

They weren't a "different era". The DS was born, literally, as the Internet "boom" got going. And it is the second best selling gaming device.....period. The 3DS faces more hurdles, yes, and yet, it still sells well. The hybrid Switch, which takes elements from the Wii U, DS/3DS, is breaking records. And the best you've got is, "yeah, but no one's buying Nintendo's platforms for Nintendo's games".

In a nutshell, no BS side-step, why is the Switch selling like it is? 

what are you talking about here? When DS was released nobody was gaming on There phones or watching youtube videos, not to mention surfing the web on the phone even in 2007-2008 was expensive, so i have no idea what you're talking about there.

As for why the switch is selling the way it is. 3ds had a good first year, n64 had good first year. so i expect switch to have a good first year too, with so many killers apps, and attracting both there user bases, but i expect it won't last just like those 2 other consoles. it will probably do 60-70 million ltd,.
