Who said that? Many pessimistic people (including myself) expected a strong launch for the system, and a tapering off over time. Given were sales are so far, there is no way of knowing which direction the system could head.

Pessimistic people didn't expect a strong launch, they expected Switch to go the way of the Wii U. The general expectation of all the doubters was that Switch would win March NPD because it's launch month, right afterwards things would go back to the PS4 winning.

Given that Switch won April NPD and is on track to win May NPD, it is already known that your lifetime sales prediction of less than Wii U is silly, stupid, preposterous, moronic, idiotic and Kelly Bundy.

Oh please Rol. You know very well I explained the circumstances for that in order to happen, and I had two predictions. If it was a handheld and home console replacement, it would sell 35 million. If it was replacing just the Wii U but still selling as well as it has been so far, I would've eaten my hat. 



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
