Everyone knows what xbox one is gonna sell, whats' the point of talking about it? The system only sells well in the US, and every one know it's gonna finish in last place at around 45-55 million.

As for nintendo consoles usually failing, well i meant in the 3D era when it had sony as competition, thats when home  sales sales grew into a new level. going back to 2d consoles nintendo was king, but that's a different era.

When i said  switch sales would fall of a cliff. I did think sales will go down, in the US in europe, and expected japan to pick up the slack, and it would finish flat for the year, it was also to counter people saying switch would destroy ps4 sales. the hyperbole was annoying, the thing hasn't been out for a year, and all you heard was switch will sell 150 million, will ps5, xb go hybrid. I love gaming now cause of switch, switch has got me back into gaming. I probably dislike the fans  way more because of ridiculous hyperbole, but its nothing against nintendo. As for switch selling like ps4, it's really not, switch is falling behind, and most likely over tracked by a good amount. 

But for quite time now everyone knows that Switch is selling and it will keep selling and actuly around double than XB1 and similar to PS4 in same time period, so whats a point talking about Switch!? :D

You didnt wrote what you meant, you wrote just home consoles and now you sound like you moving goal post.

When someone says "sales will fail of a cliff" everything is very clear and that doesnt mean flat sales, you thought after holiday season sales will be much worse than they were in 2017. and that Switch sales generally will be worse in 2018. compared to 2017. You again fail to see that here you are one that makes most hyperbole when comes to Switch potential and sales. When we talking about official numbers, Switch is selling similar to PS4 in same time period (second year on market), for instance you have NPD and Japan numbers how PS4 was selling in second year and how Switch now is selling in second year.

Switch is different, it's at  this point it's selling exactly around the same as 3ds but with out a price drop, but it's has a much better lineup, who to say it won't lose momentum, it's already selling less this year in the US. Nintedo is expecting a weaker Q1 then 2017, AND in 2017 stock was a huge problem, if they had stock we would be looking at a huge decline in Q1.

As for the falling off the cliff 7 months ago, get over that you're are beating a dead horse, to fit your agenda with me. it's already been explained to many times.
