Isn't that just proof that Youtube as a whole is peaking right now ?
Also ps4pro reveal wasn't as exciting, most people just wanted to know the specs. NX reveal on the other side has a lot of features that are better explained in a video format.
Nintendo is also the most popular amongst all fanbases. Both Playstation and Xbox fans tend to express interest for Nintendo announcement, which don't always translate in sales.
Awesome numbers though. Even if it might not directly translate in sales numbers, NX already has great product awareness.

I seriously doubt the bolded. Just because we keep an open mind and would watch a video about the next ninty console doens't mean much.

the 3DS is older than the Xone and sells better every week.

the Nintendo Wii U has far less hardware sales than the Xone or PS4 yet their exclusives regularly outsell the exclusives for the other two console manufacturer's. 

I think its fairly obvious that, yes, Nintendo has the largest dedicated fanbase. It translates in one way or another repeatedly. Doesn't mean they'll win everything but in terms of DEDICATED fans they have the most.

The real question, and more significant one, is whether or not they'll be able to bring over the casuals (who make the bulk of the video game customer market). Based on the response to the Switch announcement its a positive sign in that direction though
