You never see anything positive for Nintendo, only Sony lol

You do realize 3DS and Switch are completely different systems? Systems don't always follow the same trajectory. Look at PS2 vs PS3, X360 vs Xbox One, Wii vs Wii U. Things change from gen to gen. Everything about Switch thus far indicates it will be highly successful, Nintendo has set this thing up to do extremely well. I know you don't want that to happen, but it's happening right before you. 

ps2 vs ps3 was because sony messed up with pricing, and 360 stole its lunch, they delivered a console that was nearly as powerful a year earlier, better controller, and better price . wii was fad. switch will follow 3ds, but crash much faster because of the mobile market.

Well shit, Nintendo "messed up with pricing" on the 3DS as well if you want to go that route. They missed out on the potential for a bigger launch because of it. It's really moot though, point is you cannot guarantee a console will perform exactly or in similar vein to it's predecessor. In fact, no console has done that if you think about it. 

The mobile market has been strong for YEARS, Switch is selling despite the presence of the mobile market. It would have been DOA, like many of you wanted, if mobile was going to impede future success. You're so busy wanting Switch to fail you're missing the bottom line of why it's successful in the first place. VERSATILITY! Which no other gaming console has had to this degree.
