That's an especially funny statement. You recognize that Switch occupies a unique position and holds a monopoly in the portable market, and I am pretty sure you also recognize that that isn't going to change, yet you are still concerned about new PS and Xbox consoles posing a threat for Switch.

Why shouldn't I be concerned? Is Switch sold as portable, perceived as such and getting games as if it is a portable? No. Even if it has the monopoly of that market it doesn't necessarily mean it will sell and have a shelf life as other portables. Does Nintendo have another device to fall back to when Switch faces real competition from PS5 ad XB2? No.
They would be better off for the future - whatever that future entails - if it had the type of 3rd party games that make Sony and MS consoles, primary consoles.

Assuming momentum is maintained well, wouldn't the Switch be nearing 65 million by late 2020( My estimate of when the nest consoles will drop)? I think the Switch is being perceived as a handheld, as it is more in line with Nintendo's handheld. I also think it is getting the games as if it was a portable( I would never imagine something like Octopath on a traditional console).
