Switch is selling like crazy and Nintendo cant keep up with demand, and Switch yet to receive in future years huge system sellers like Pokemon, Animal Crossing, Monster Hunter (not port of old one). Just look how many Pokemon games 3DS recived..

Yes, but Nintendo could still deliver the wrong software like they did with the Wii U. Don't get me wrong, I'm very optimistic. I think the Switch has the potential to sell more than 100 million units worldwide and definitely 20+ million in Japan. But the Wii started off great, too and then Nintendo decided to focus on games that weren't mass market friendly. Nintendo has this bad habit of pushing stuff people don't want once they are successful, like 3D Mario over 2D Mario, despite the former selling less. Or abandoning Wii Sports despite the game being huge. Or not putting effort into Wii U versions of games that sold well on the Wii. I just hope they learned from their mistakes this time. If they did, the Switch is going to clear those 100 million units worldwide and even has a chance to match the sales of the original DS.

Wii U had plenty of big problems not just with big games that come late, I dont think we can compare Wii U and Switch. In Japan people are looking at Switch mostly like handheld, and games like Pokemon, Animal Crossing and MH are huge system sellers.

Yep heard it first here, and we are yet to know for how long Switch will keep ahead.

Nobody knows that, but fact is that currently Switch is doing pretty good despite fact that still is heavily supply constrained.
