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

But Switch 2 isn't releasing in 2020, so we can't expect such a decline. Except you wanna tell us the decline of PS3-sales was caused by the release of the WiiU.

It's not so much about a Switch 2, it's about the next gen consoles coming out next year and how that will affect Switch sales. Sure you can say they are in different markets but you have to keep in mind that around 60% of the Switch owners also have a ps4 and Xone. https://www.nintendoenthusiast.com/npd-60-percent-switch-owners-ps4-xbox-one/

Like I said, the masses usually flock to the latest gadget when it comes to gaming. Right now that's the Switch, but if 60% of the Switch users also own a ps4/Xone, I wonder if the Switch can hold their interest when next gen consoles hit the market and something like GTA6 comes out.

This logic makes no sense.

PS4/XBO early adopters became NSW early adopters and will become PS5/XSX early adopters.........how does that affect future sales of NSW?

NSW owners buying a PS5/XSX doesnt affect Nintendo, they already got their money from those people.

The people who bought a PS4/XBO for $150-300 in 2017-2019 are more likely to buy a NSW in 2020/2021 than a PS5/XSX.
