I am convinced whatever surprisingly good sales third party games have had on modern Nintendo devices would be even better had said games launched at th same time as the other platforms. When a game comes out 1-5 years later on Nintendo, then almost all the sales you get are the fans and they don't get hardly any of the bandwagon/hype train purchasers. If MH Rise came out on PC first, then in Switch 6 months later, I'm convinced sales would be probably 3-5 million less lifetime on Switch. There are a ton of people that buy things when they are brand new, but don't buy things after months/years of hearing about it (they lose excitement).
