Me? Nope, I do wish the game do well. I'm just curious on if we will consider the sales, good or bad are on the merit of the game and userbase and not based on excuses.

I think being a late port impacts the sales more than scores or graphics or whatever. Given, some late ports on Switch did better than on their earlier platforms. But not all. I personally think Skyrim might resonate better with Switch-userbase than Doom. So let's see, the two games have on PS4 (as point of reference): 2.7M for Skyrim and 2.2M for Doom. So let's say 20% for Doom and 40% for Skyrim would put my hopeful expectations on Switch at a little above 1M for Skyrim and at 450K for Doom. Maybe my expectations are too high, maybe too low, I don't really know, but I'm pretty sure Skyrim does better relatively.

Skyrim will 100% sell better than Doom on Switch, a couple of days ago on the UK eshop Skryim was already in the top selling downloads charts, even though it doesnt release for a week, yet Doom was only a couple of days from release and wasnt in the top 20. That's a pretty good indicator.
