i have had many controversial opinions come true, everyone thought amazon was a good predicting tool, i told them it would fail in 2018 it did, many predicted switch to easily beat  ps4 sales this year, i predicted ps4 would outsell it, and it came true. same thing last year when i predicted ps4 would double switch sales in november, and also switch would sell less this year from april to august then last year.  keep in mind these were all  youcontroversial and i was flamed for some, yet they cam out true. that prediction  you posted i'm extremely confident in.

Wow....... you time travelled and saw the dispute between Sony and Amazon ? 

that has nothing to do with it, but nice try. the dispute lasted 2 months, it's been wrong the whole year, and always biased to switch.

It wasn't wishful thinking many analysts predicted handheld gaming was dying and after the Wiiu I honestly thought Nintendo brand power was very weak, so I thought like 3ds and 64 momentum wouldn't last long, and with Nintendo releasing imo most the biggest franchises last year momentum wouldn't last.

That was before Switch launch, while you said "Switch will fail of a cliff" at end of 2017. when was obvious that Switch will be successful console in any case. Switch was doing stronger in its first year (with huge stocks problems while 3DS didnt had them at all) even than 3DS that had huge price cut in order to start selling, but you ignored that offcourse, also comparing it with N64 also don't make sense, Switch after first 9 months was at half of LT N64 numbers. You were completely ignoring fact that Switch last year was sold out most of year, you also ignoring fact that last year Switch didnt had any deal or price cut, you also ignoring fact despite Ninetendo released some of its strong IPs they have more of them like that Switch this year is getting two IPs that are one most strongest Nintendo IPs.

So yeah, your predictions about Nintendo are just yours wishful thinkings. And its not point only about Switch hardware, everything regardless Nintendo, for instance Nintendo Switch games sales also.

3ds having a huge price didn't mean it would start losing momentum early, it could have been the sweet spot, and it could have sold insanely well like the DS at a cheap price. the N64 comparison was in the USA where it was a beast for like a year or 2 not WW. I'm not ignoring switch was sold out most of last year you are simply over estimating the effect it had, thats why you lost the bet that you considered wishful thinking from april to august, anyway you are free to think what you like, you obviously are not convincing me, and i won't be convincing you.
