Nintendo's success with the Switch both a blessing and a curse?

Except it is a home console that just happens to have better portability... otherwise you wouldn't see things like a Pro Controller that is always a best selling item on Amazon (currently #8 in Video Game sales for 2019 and the highest selling controller)...

First few years of new games that dominated sales and highly rated: Pokemon, BotW, Mario Kart, Luigi's Mansion 3, Fire Emblem, SSBU, Super Mario Maker 2, Mario & Rabbids, Link's Awakening, Splatoon 2, Odyssey, etc... just take a look at Amazon's best selling Video Game category and it will give you an idea of how well the Switch is doing right now... PS/Xbox are carried by Fortnite, Madden, CoD, etc... and any game that is released on Switch, PS4, and Xbox 1 the Switch outsells it almost always (Spyro, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, Crash Racing, Just Dance 2020, Civilization VI, etc)... in fact, the only game I see that the Switch has been outsold on is MK11 and that's because Smash makes that game irrelevant to Switch owners... The Switch is dominating right now and I don't think the PS5/XSX will change that in 2020 (and possibly 2021)...

You are making just as many ridiculous claims as he is, where are you coming up with Crash, Spyro, CTR selling more on Switch? Or that MK11 is only selling worse because of Smash?

As I said in my post, on Amazon's top selling list...

The MK11 claim is pure speculation (with Smash selling 15 million units in less than a year seems a reasonable conclusion)
