I agree, I think it will do better globally than it has in Japan. Let's Go did.

Interestingly Let's Go week sold the same hardware as Sword/Shield.

Let's Go week Switch sold 180,585 in Japan.

Sword & Shield week Switch sold 180,136 in Japan.

If I remember correctly both the Smash hardware bundle and the Pokemon hardware bundle released on that week

The SwordShield hardware bundle was not paired with the game release.

Anyway Sword Shield did ok. Nothing stellar but not horrible either. Somehow very representative of the game itself :D
I do expect it to have better legs though but we will see.

Smash bundle released earlier I think? Assuming it launched in america and japan same time anyway.

New bundle approaching! This upcoming bundle will include a #NintendoSwitch system, Super #SmashBrosUltimate branded Joy-Con controllers and dock, as well as a download code for the game. Available 11/2. pic.twitter.com/x4tXUngnOk

I don't know about the pokemon bundle, the one I can find is a limited edition one that was $399 which I don't think is the one you're talking about.
