In light of the new consoles releasing, I thought I would propose a funny topic about the dumbest/funniest reasons you have heard someone say for why a console will not succeed. If you choose to participate in this thread please dont take it to seriously. 

Back when the Switch was first revealed, I remember somone(Colin Moriarty I believe) say that one of the factors for the switch flopping is that no one will be able to look up "Switch" on google and see a nintendo Switch, only a light switch. This is so funny to me, especially because now if you look up switch you actually see a nintendo switch. I think about this alot. 

Colin Moriarty is consistently a dumbass. Pretty certain he said the 3DS would fail, in large part due to the Vita, so another one for this list.

Yep... https://www.ign.com/articles/2011/10/22/the-playstation-vita-is-set-to-succeed

"Vita will be pitted against the Nintendo 3DS. But the comparison doesn't make a whole lot of sense, and even if you were to pit them against each other, Vita is still destined to sell better. That's because in addition to games (which Nintendo 3DS is still sorely lacking), it's also a much more powerful machine capable of doing a whole lot more than 3DS."
