I never said the normal Switch will stop selling. As a matter of fact the normal Switch will probably go up in sales. All I'm saying is that the Lite will sell FASTER and beat it in the long run because the barrier of entry to get to the Nintendo exclusives (which is the main driver of Switch sales) is much lower.

1. Exactly how much do you expect the switch to sale? 110 million is looking like the endgoal right now, and for the lite to make up the majority of that, the normal switch will have to slow down a lot.

2. The normal switch isn't going to be $300 forever. I am not sure why some people seem to think it wont ever get a price cut. 

3. While the barrier of entry is lower at the moment, that still doesn't mean that the majority of people will undercut the benefits of the OG switch, especially in the long term. 

(1) I dont know where it will end up, but I predict it will outsell the PS4 by a whole LOT.

(2) When the regular Switch goes down in price the Lite will follow suit. Why do you think the Lite will be $199 forever?

(3) Average Joe is EXTREMELY price sensitive. This is why companies have always removed features to get the price down to increase sales, PS3 removing BC, Gamecube removing digital port, Wii removing BC, etc.
