Xbox One easily has a better library than Wii U..... and thats not really disputable

As a console Nintendo loses to Microsoft purely because consoles denotes in this era that third party rules. Micorsoft is the most reliant console maker on third party. If nintnedo lacks it, they lose. The problem is the switch will get Wii U games ported and will reflect exactly what the Wii U set out to do and more. They will also have third party support.

To the bolded, I disagree. Switch has a much better library in its first 8 months than the X1 had in its first 8 months.

And no, Nintendo can be successful without third party, its just that the Nintendo's own output for Wii U wasnt nearly as good as it is with switch, or wii, or gamecube. Games like New Super Mario Bros U, Wii Party U, Animal Crossing Amiibo festival, Star fox zero, Paper Mario color splash, along with some other games just werent thaat good.

 Switch is on fire, and it's 2017 output is much better than xbox's 2017 output, even including third party imo.

The Wii U third party was gimped ports, not much else. Switch will also get gimped ports, but there are two upsides. First is portability, and exchanging a few features for portability will be fine with many people. Second, the Switch has a better architecture and considerably better cpu power than the Wii U, so third party ports will be less gimped than before, since the Switch is closer to the PS4/XONE than Wii U. We will also have cases like doom, where you get the whole game, just with a bit weaker graphics.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.
