The Switch isn't selling because of 1-2 Switch, it's selling because it's an appealing concept with effective marketing that launched with a potent killer app in Breath of the Wild.

Take away 1-2 Switch and the system would still be selling great. There's none of the buzz surrounding it that made Wii Sports a phenomenon, it's not a system seller.

I'm fully aware that Zelda and MK8Dx are doing most of the heavy lifting in sales right now. But I'm pretty sure sales would be some 1-200k lower without 1-2 Switch. That's not very much, but it's something already.

I honestly doubt there'd be a significant shortfall at all. It's just not the kind of game that sells a $299 piece of hardware.
