Only Minecraft and Street Fighter for May? Can Switch sell well this month?

No console has been a hybrid Switch is not strictly a console, it caters to two markets the console and portable markets and one of those markets Switch will be the only device for consumers to buy. Vita and 3DS consumers have to go somewhere for traditional portable gaming and right now they total around 80m plus (around 90m by the end of this year), that's a large pool of potential buyers Nintendo has no one else fighting them for and will make up the bulk of Switch owners, any console market consumers will be a bonus but in the end I see a around 80m users for switch.

Then you're predicting 40M until 31/12/2020 and 80M until 31/12/2023.

I feel compelled to make a prediction to the end of NS's life cycle too. I say 20M until 31/12/2020 and 25M until 31/12/2023. This should make things interesting.

im not sure if you have already done so but could you explain why you think Switch will do so poorly? all signs seem to be pointing at Switch being the successor to both Wii U & 3DS which have a combined 80+ million sold and so far Switch seems to have better marketing, a more desirable concept and better software output than either of them.

I know 3DS+Wii U sold about 1/3 as much as DS+Wii but to expect Switch to sell less than 1/3 of 3DS+Wii U seems like highly unlikely.
