The Switch-3DS basically already did exactly what you're saying cannot happen.  Nintendo did release *twenty* 3DS games after Switch launched in a 24 month period ... that's a regular flow of games. The DS by comparison got five new releases after the 3DS launched. 

They've already basically shown how they can do it. Any store (that's open) and carries video games still has a 3DS section today, we are in May 2020 ... that is almost 9 1/2 years since the 3DS launched. This is already one of the longest product cycles in Nintendo's history. It's now longer than even the DS, so the 3DS outlived the DS despite having far fewer sales. 

And there's no real indication that Nintendo plans to stop selling the 3DS. It may well make it to its 10th anniversary. If that is not an extended product cycle, exactly what is? 

Not convincing at all. Too much straw.

Can't argue against facts.
