its far superior because it took wii u games. you are also forgetting mario kart 8 delux which is massive. nobody is saying switch doesn't have a better lineup, it obviously does, but even if wiiu line up was better it was a console nobody desired. I mean all you have to do, is look at sales within 2 months it was selling like a dead console. even if it had mario kart it's first 8 months, i don't think results would have changed much.

I think pretty much everybody agrees the Wii U was unappealing, horribly designed hardware.

All we're saying is that Switch's success is inextricably bound to its strong output of megaton software.

Well i been trying to say both the desired hardware and software is required to sell the way switch is selling in japan. Switch for example would have been  Successful regardless, if it only had one killer app, or 3 the first 8 months, maybe they would have to cut the price, or it would have sold 1 million less but it wouldn't be selling like a dead console.
