Is Nintendo Switch really a success?

But the Switch is a handheld and a home console. You can't use it to determine something like that. The best we can do is look at past results. 

No. It's a home console with a portable aspect.
Pretty much everything about it spells home console. It just has the portable side to it. 

That's why not even Nintendo sees it as a competitor to 3DS.

How do you want to make a fair comparison if you don't wait for the results on Switch?

What else could they do to make a handheld? Handhelds are defined by their portable aspect. Based on sales, it certainly seems like consumers see it as a handheld. The fair comparisons come from past comparisons, not from the Switch IMO
