Tottaly different things, you talking about sequels compared to new game that's totally different genre compared to already released Nintendo games on Switch.

Also there is no rule when you talk if some first game selling better or worse than sequel, there are plenty different things that effect on sales of those games, hype behind those games, popularity and time of release, are some of things that effect. Galaxy 1 had much bigger hype than Galaxy 2 had, Zelda SS also had much smaller hype than Zelda TP, also it was released when majority of Wii owners already migrated to other platforms and also required addon that you need to buy seperate. Switch will definitely getting another 3D Mario and other 3D Zelda, its way early to say if they will sell worse or better than Odyssey and BotW, but IMO it will be hard because until those new 3D Mario and 3D Zelda arive on market, Odyssey and BotW will continue to be one must have Switch games for every new Switch owner.

 

First your point is very weak, second even going buy your point, Smash Bros is game that has huge hype and it will have biggest hype during holiday season and easily biggest marketing push along side Pokemon Let Go, that affects also greatly on buyers and even on parents when they are buying games.

well i honestly feel the same with ps4, RDR2 and spiderman are gonna hurt GOW legs big time imo. when talking about nintendo systems, it's usually  major nintendo franchises that do great numbers, well see it's just a theory of mine, maybe it's flawed but imo thats why nintendo games have such great legs, people buying nintendo consoles are just buying them for nintendo games. switch will have mario kart, mario odyssia, pokemon, and zelda to choose from, which is why i don't see smash having record numbers.

But thats a point, BotW, MK8D and Odyssey all have great sales numbers despite effect have on each other, same will be with Smash Ultimate, people will have onother must have game for system, especially because Switch now has much bigger install base that it had last year when those games were launched, and Smash have huge hype and launch during strongest month for Nintendo. Maybe you would had some point if those games are launch in same month with Smash Bros, but those games were launched last year, and hole focus at years end will be on Smash Bros and Pokemon.
