I think the Switch will sell 80m, but even if it doesn't, the pressure is not solely on the Switch to bring in profits. Nintendo also has their mobile division making low-cost/high-revenue games. So really we went from Wii U + 3DS profits to Switch + Mobile profits.

More like Wii U + 3DS losses to Switch + Mobile profits

?  Nintendo has profited on every 3DS sale since July 25, 2012.  It's global hardware and software sales propped up the company to annual profits in 2015 and 2016 before Nintendo's entrance into the mobile market or Switch came on the scene this year.
