Moving along...

The Switch is so far trailing the PS4's 2015 performance by only about 4%, or 105k units, and is continuing to far surpass the 3DS (42.8% more units for the Jan.-Oct. period of Year 2). Not too shabby, considering the lack of a price cut or major hardware revision. Smash should provide a huge boost for December, and, if Japan is any indication, Pokemon Let's Go could help out in November (though on the downside the Switch doesn't have the best BF deals).

That's decent for Nintendo. Switch is selling about the same as the PS4 at the same points in their life cycle. 

Again the key for Switch will be how Nintendo can hold up the ecosystem in the later years, the PS4 is very strong in its later years and even XBox One has gained momentum mainly owing to the Pro/X effect IMO. 

It is good, but we must always keep on mind it is 100 cheaper and launched with a very strong lineup, so they have less pricecuts to do (they are priced the same as PS4 is now after 5 years in the market without slowing down, which I don't think Switch would manage) and system sellers will run their course in the near future. So imho in the next 2 years Switch will probably start to be little below the curve of PS4 aligned.
