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.

Well you can say that PS4 was strongest console on market, has much stronger hardware than Switch, 500GB internal memory, Blu-ray support, much stronger 3rd party support...sales shows that both consoles are price aduquate on launch and now. Also you could bought PS4 last Holiday season for $200. I dont saying I disagree with you, I just bridging differences when you compare them.

Switch is not hard to sell now with launch price point and single model, why would be tough to be sell later when gets price cuts, different kind of revisions and much more availible games?

Thats not what I meant by "going to be a tough sell".

What I meant is that shifting the idea of a switch per household (selling like a home console) to a switch per person (selling like a handheld and having multiple switchs in one household) is going to be a hard thing to accomplish.

My bad.

Well yeah, Switch or some kind of Switch revision would need to have price point of at least $200 to start selling like device per person. Also its very possible that we will have smaller cheaper Switch revsion whithout dock just for handheld play.
