So launch period is contextually OK, but overall interests levels in the device leading into launch, and after, and software quality and presence is contextually not? Because those are pretty clear advantages for the Switch over the WiiU, and perhaps even more important.

This reply makes no sense what so ever because anyone can see the context of the post he made and tbh your argument about why the Switch did better than the Wii U doesn't change a thing because fact is at this moment he's still right Switch launched outside of the holidays and is ahead of Wii U in allignment of their launches this is something you can't dispute in any way right now.

Your argument is basically a no shit sherlock as Switch had to have some advantages launching after Wii U a commercially low selling platform and launching outside of the holiday season with two powerful platforms already in the market that have skus around the same price or cheaper. Wii U launched in the holiday period after one of the best selling consoles of all time with only previous gen platforms around that were weaker and on their last year so it itself had factors and advantages in its favour so everything equals itself out.

But he never disuputed that the Switch was ahead of the Wii U. Just stated that people were making it bigger than what it is using the holiday vs non holiday argument. Heck one could argue as well that the Switch had the advantage of lauching right at tax time when most people got their taxes back, it was the only new system on the market, was one of if not the most hyped Nin console ever AND released with one of the best Nin games ever created.

When I saw most of the posts twintails made they seemed perfectly reasonable. But the replies he got were as if he was attacking the Switch or even saying the sales were bad when he was not. He was making valid points, never disputed that the Switch launch was better than that of the Wii U. Just showed another way of looking at it....all in context.
