I think Nintendo will do fine. This line-up is nowhere near as bad as their GameCube 2005 holiday line-up of:

Fire Emblem
Super Mario Strikers
Pokemon XD

It was pitiful.

Probably their worst holiday lineup ever.

That's hardly fair. That might be a light line-up, but it's not an accurate comparison. Nintendo also had holiday releases in 2005 on GBA and DS. Switch is Nintendo's only dedicated platform, and only in the middle of its life. We should expect more from Nintendo's only platform halfway through its life.

I won't debate that Nintendo has titles that will make a lot of money this holiday season. But none of them have the oomph that Super Mario Odyssey, Super Smash Bros., and Pokemon have. 



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 151 million (was 73, then 96, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million)

PS5: 115 million (was 105 million) Xbox Series S/X: 57 million (was 60 million, then 67 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)
