The difference in your comparison is that 3rd party support was great from the beginning for PS4, so if that was its 2nd year support than it would mean most games didnt do too well.

Switch on the other hand had a whopping 17 retail games from March-June of last year, it had about 4 times as many in the same time frame this year.

 

Context is key, most third parties who have released Switch games are continuing to support it while more and more are announcing games for it. This is a sign that overall 3rd party games are doing well, ill repeat well not great, amazing, spectacular, etc.

Personally I think context is less important than you're making it out to be. There's a difference between "good third party support" and "good third party support for a Nintendo console", I think you're more focused on the "for a Nintendo console" part, whereas I'm putting them all on the same playing field.

Honestly, when it all boils down to it, I think the only thing separating us is how we're defining "well".

Then how about actually stating your definition of well?
