Will the Switch Dominate The Holiday Season?

This thread is in terms of hardware, not software correct? A game can sell a lot of software but not push much hardware, could it not?

 

I am surprised though that almost half those polled expect the Switch to dominate. That $300 price tag is still well above a typical high selling Nintendo console/handheld, is it not?

1) Yes, and I expect this to happen to the PS4 at this time of its life. RDR2, Spider-Man and whatever else will be released won't push sales high anymore as most people who wanted a PS4 already have one now. Just look at the sales this year until now: Monster Hunter World has pushed sales in Japan very much and God of War is highly acclaimed and selling like hot cakes - and yet worldwide sales are down and trending to go down much more over the next weeks and months.

What's with that 300$ price tag argument? It would have been valid before launch but by now it's clear people are buying the Switch at that price point. Besides if you add in the inflation then the Switch is actually cheaper than the Wii.
