I think it will do slightly better in Q4 on account of the Lite, but I'm not sure Sword/Shield alone can overpower the 1-2 punch of Pokemon Let's Go and Smash Ultimate last year.

You're right that the exclusive software last year is probably bigger, Smash Bros > Sword/Shield, Let's Go > Luigi's Mansion, Mario Party > Mario & Sonic and like you said, Lite should cancel out any deficiencies there so I think the amount of growth will come down to how aggressive Nintendo is with bundles/discounts this holiday.

So far Nintendo doesn't seem to have been very aggressive in that regard though, as I recall they had no discounts for Holiday 2017 or 2018, and with the Lite now at $200 it doesn't seem likely they'll discount this holiday either.
