Difference however is that the Switch doesn't look like a Fisher-Price addon to the Wii :p It all depends on whether Nintendo can keep momentum. They're gaining indie/3rd party support, and have spaced out exclusives. If they keep it up, I don't see why the switch should do bad. Marketing is also good, with many people at least recognizing the Switch as "that new console". |
I consider it a given that the Switch will sell significantly better than the WiiU, if only for the reason that it's clearly a better concept.
But doing bad is an extremely vague phrase that can mean almost anything. If selling significantly better than WiiU is enough for being considered not doing bad, then I absolutely agree. But I doubt that in the long run Switch sales will come anywhere close to, say, Wii- or PS4 sales.
