Biggest difference between Wii and Switch will be that Switch will have longer life span with multiply revisons and it will have typical IPs that were on handheld only before, for instance Pokemon, so yeah Wii had stronger sales in same time period but Switch will probably have longer sales and it will be longer on market with more revisions.

Wii and DS also didn't had strong part support that could be compared with PS3 support.

 

That's probable, but my point is, assuming the Switch is replaced in 7 years with more support during those latter years than what the Wii got, what's going to keep driving interest? Will there be a long lasting novelty? Will Nintendo have enough momentum in between Pokemon releases? Is there a large enough stream of significant releases for the Switch to pace out a year?

More games obviously in any case, more Pokemon, more 3D Zelda, more 3D Mario, more new IPs, more old IPs, more 3rd party exclusives, more spin offs, more 3rd party support, more ports/remasters...remember, Switch is becoming only Nintendo platform they need to support so support will be much easier and they can easily try more different and new thing. Hardware revisions also always boost sales. Than you also have revisions, bundles, price cuts...

Talking about biggest Nintendo IPs, This year will probably have Pokemon and Smash Bros, next we could have Animal Crossing and 2D Mario, next again Pokemon and 3D Mario...after that 3D Zelda and new Mario Kart..
