Well I'd still strongly say that Pokémon was one of the biggest factors that allowed the 3DS to be quite successful in the time of smartphones. 

And Switch compared to Wii U launch month sales showed the exact opposite. Essepically when you look at the fact the Wii U launch library was actually one of biggest for any console.

Here are the first week sales for Switch, Wii U, Xbox One and PS4:


Switch Wii U Xbox One PS4
1 1,400,822 472,099 1,104,585 1,071,184

Can you spot the difference?

You're not wrong, to be fair though the PS4 was supply constrained and only launched in the U.S. I believe at the time of 1 million sales.
