Ok. We don't have numbers. We have a list. How do you come to the conclusion that the games are selling well? I'm not saying they aren't (just indications that they aren't) but you can't say they are.
A few devs saying they are happy with sales doesn't even come close to any conclusion. Didn't the Rocket League devs say they couldn't believe the sales on Switch or something like that. But that doesn't represent the state of 3rd party games on Switch as a whole.
Switch version of Fifa selling above Xbox for One week because of a big price cut isn't exactly something to celebrate either.
So what about our very own VGC? Well their numbers don't do much to promote your opinion either. Last year NS sold 42M units of software at retail. 6 Nintendo made games sold 27.6M units. All the other publishers, 14.4M.

You can’t downplay this, sorry. It’s not just a few developers that are satisfacted. Namco, Square, Tecmo, Sega, Disgaea Dev, Bethesda, 2k, even Capcom lol, tons, like, tons of indies, have said they were satisfacted with games sales and/or we have numbers that prove they did well. Do you seriously want a list? I can do it, but it will take some time.

Downplay? No.
I just disagreed with his reasons for claiming the list shows that 3rd party games are doing well.
Now you've presented some interesting information. It goes against what I've presented so it's a case of PR vs VGC, Amazon and UK charts.
BTW I would love a list.
