Wait what? A decline in relevance means exactly that. It means people who aren't necessary fans of Nintendo still buying their shit. And if no 3rd parties come on board it becomes a niche. You know what a niche is? Exactly the opposite of relevant.

The software numbers have a good chance of increasing because Nintendo isn't splitting their base anymore. But that doesn't mean they gain relevance. That just means Nintendo fans buy more software because more of it is available to them.

The issue is gonna come in with if their movie business, anime, and cell phone games become successful. The console business is just going to be a slice of Nintendo on whole.

Ya if Switch hardware has a slight decline from 3DS+Wii U sales but their software sales increase along with having successful movies, theme park attractions, mobile software and they start posting annual profits higher than the 3DS/Wii U era than it would be very strange to say they're declining in relevance.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
