For now it's selling on 3/4 system sellers and a really cool concept. But what about a year or two from now?

 

1 word. Pokemon!

A system seller, yes. But Pokemon hasn't stopped 3DS from doing lower than GBA numbers, for example.

Your point is that Nintendo won't be able to keep up the momentum with the Switch after releasing 4 big hitters this year. My point is a pokemon mainline game will keep momentum singlehandedly for a whole year if necessary and singlehandedly increase the baseline. After that there are plenty enough big hitters left in Nintendo's locker to keep momentum for another 3 years, then if a slump starts, there's always the possibility of sequelsof their huge games and by that time...  more pokemon! I can see Nintendo themselves managing to keep momentum going for the Switch quite comfortably for 5+ years, or even at the larger end, even possibly 8! Handhelds tend to last longer, so, wynaut?
