A failure? Making a comeback after your worst generation by far to sell 3 times as much is a failure? I think your expectations are a bit high there.

Switch is the successor to both the Wii U and the 3DS, so 40m wouldn't be three times as much, it would be half as much. That would be a failure with no ifs and no buts.

Fortunately, crossing the 40m mark will be a piece of cake for Switch. I expect a mix between the Wii and DS sales curves, so a strong start with a long sustained peak. Switch is going to sell more than 100m units.

I don't think the Switch is a successor to the 3DS just because it has portable capabilities. And to expect it to outsell the Wii U and 3DS is a bit mad if you ask me. But hey I'm sure one of these threads will be bumped in a few years or so.
