Since PS5 is no less than 2 years away, perhaps 3... it may even happen that Switch is either on decline or substituted by the time PS5 comes out if regular Nintendo pace happens.

That a quite a reaching, 3DS has selling good even after 4-5 years on market and it seems that Switch with revisions and difrent types of hardware will be closer to 3DS, in 2-3 years Switch can have some of its best years on market. In any case he implied that Switch will stop selling when PS5 comes in market and offocurse that dont make sense.

2015 - 7M

Year 4 and 5 saw 30% drop on the previous year. But certainly the peak and the drop is smoother than what we have seen from the Nintendo consoles.

One thing I have to remember you and other Nintendo fans all the time is that you can't by calling it a hybrid uses only the strenghts of what Nintendo had on consoles and HH without also considering the weakness of both, like if the sum of the parts made it all strenghts and no weakness.

We can't really be sure if they will have several revisions and that it will bring high sales, although it's expected. Still as I put, if PS5 comes only by 2021, Switch would already be on the decline phase so it would be even harder to see it passing PS4 (because also, PS5 releasing in 2021 means PS4 sales up until that point were still strong).
