Make your call: how long until Switch exceeds "X1family".

Sea of Thieves can become the next big thing. But it still haven't.

The possibility of a continuation on the same HW gen to generate more HW sales is nill.

You talk about the other having a crystal ball, but you are the one pretending Halo 6 and SoT will make X1 sell gangbusters.

Comparing Pokemon, Mario and Metroid on their first appearence on the HW to Halo "yearly endeavor" and SoT, to say both cases have similar HW pushing capabilities is preposterous.

On games giving a boost to HW you could say that about any game because most likely someone is buying the console with some new game released even if the game itself sells only 100k.

I never once said SoT or Halo 6 is going to sell gangbusters and outsell Mario or Pokemon etc haha.

MS have games on there own table that can push there own hardware. Weather they outsell Pokemon and Metriod is another topic all togother. To think Rares next big game or the next Mainline Halo game wont push Xbox HW is niave. 

You really either have a problem in text comprehension or you decide to understand what you want.

It isn't SoT or Halo 6 selling gangbusters... is they making X1 sales gangbusters.

No it isn't naive. Will SoT or Halo 6 push extra 5M HW sales each? Probably not. But Mario and Pokemon will probably add that to the userbase in quite few time. And why is it? Because the console is on its early days and they are the first out of stablished franchises on the console while Xbox is on its 4 year and Halo was already on the console and SoT is a wildcard. So you can't pretend your prevision of it doing great for the HW as anymore valid than a better historically stablished prevision of it not pushing much hard, no more than 1M sum probably.
