A game like Mario Tennis is not expected to push hardware, MHW is. Yet, a system without it, still outsold it. Without "big" games you could say. There is your answer.

The narrative was that Mario Tennis + Minecraft + the summer Switch release schedule + the positive E3 effect was going to increase the Switch baseline starting this week.  It didnt, people just want to know why.

What narrative? I certainly didn't say that, so who did? My opinion is that Japanese way less for things like E3. Also, isn't the Switch basically above 40k since this month? Do you believe that is the baseline or the things you mentioned above? I certainly don't know. So yeah, why?
