And that preddicton didn't had any sense from start, it was just yours wishful thinking like most of your predictions when comes to Nintendo.

Talking about NPD, biggest sales from start were expected to be during Nov-Dec period when Switch actualy getting two easily biggest its games of year compared to hole years lineup, and thats huge difference compared to last year for same months, plus this year was expected that Switch also will have some kind of deals for BF and Holiday while last year didnt had nothing. Switch being -4% until that period means nothing because around 50-60% of Nintendo yearly sales usually comes just from November-December period.

It wasn't wishful thinking many analysts predicted handheld gaming was dying and after the Wiiu I honestly thought Nintendo brand power was very weak, so I thought like 3ds and 64 momentum wouldn't last long, and with Nintendo releasing imo most the biggest franchises last year momentum wouldn't last.

That was before Switch launch, while you said "Switch will fail of a cliff" at end of 2017. when was obvious that Switch will be successful console in any case. Switch was doing stronger in its first year (with huge stocks problems while 3DS didnt had them at all) even than 3DS that had huge price cut in order to start selling, but you ignored that offcourse, also comparing it with N64 also don't make sense, Switch after first 9 months was at half of LT N64 numbers. You were completely ignoring fact that Switch last year was sold out most of year, you also ignoring fact that last year Switch didnt had any deal or price cut, you also ignoring fact despite Ninetendo released some of its strong IPs they have more of them like that Switch this year is getting two IPs that are one most strongest Nintendo IPs.

So yeah, your predictions about Nintendo are just yours wishful thinkings. And its not point only about Switch hardware, everything regardless Nintendo, for instance Nintendo Switch games sales also.
