What's strange to me is how the Switch is hanging around Wii's heels sale-wise even though Wii was a pop culture phenomenon. The only reason I can think of to explain this is that the gaming industry has gotten much larger than it was in 2006.

The Wii brought in a lot of new people to console gaming, and that is why its sales exploded.  Switch is selling mostly to handheld gamers right now.  Nintendo always sells a lot of consoles to handheld gamers.  That is where these customers came from.  Switch also got a decent sales boost by having really good software its first year (especially Zelda).

What makes you think handheld gamers are the reason though? Just a guess?
