There are already 1st party games that are a good prove of that

A great example is Arms, a game that debuted 2nd on UK with barely 10k sales and behind Horizon on its 16th week, for many this was a sign of flop, yet by August Nintendo said they had already shipped 1.2m of copies worldwide

Other example is Splatoon 2 that debuted 2nd after Crash bandicoot on its 4rd week with barely 25k - 30k, yet by September the game had already sold 3.6m worldwide

Even BoTW was released selling barely a 40% of what Horizon sold that same week yet right now the switch version has sold 4.7m worlwide, wich is like a 30% more than what Horizon did.

No, UK has never been a good indicator of success when it comes to Nintendo.

Comparing Nintendo 1st party games to third party games on a Nintendo system. Third party games dont sell well on Nintendosystems unless they are third party exclusives. It has been that way since the gamecube era. Selling less units than a PSVR game whilst having four times the userbase is poor performance for the Switch.

Poor performance on UK, which is usually a bad market for Nintendo, is that so hard to understand?
