So.. in the end, did the Switch launch really receive wide mainstream attention?

Of course, the announcement of a new iPhone will get the majority of mainstream attention any day.
But the quite launch of the Switch tells us that PS4 Pro probably wouldn't have made it to local news, radio stations, etc. anyway if it had been revealed a week apart from the iPhone 7. Especially since PS4 Pro is just a hardware revision and as people pointed out to you, only a new generation of hardware can hope for mass media coverage.
