I see people bringing the install base.... but when people talk about install base for switch and ps4 (horizon vs zelda, crash, splatoon....) they say it's not as important. People should stick to one or the other.

Amazing sales on both parts, nice too see japan pulling these kind of numbers

Install bases are important but they're far from the single factor to consider. High profile games that release close to a successful system's launch typically benefit from it in the long run. This won't apply to Dragon Quest XI since it isn't an early game, both 3DS and PS4 launched a while ago, both have a larger selection of games to choose from compared to Switch.

Is not a single factor but is one. Especially when you compare and old platform (0s4) versus a new release one (switch) I.e. Horizon vs zelda. People downplayed zelda because it sold less at the beginning.... being practically impossible to sell more simply because there were no more people to sell to.
