A game can still push hardware even if it’s not the best selling software. SMT has a hardcore fan base as well as Metroid so I disagree, both those games can move hardware. Not as much as a new smash or Pokémon game but still can move the needle. If what your saying is true for Pokémon/MP/Skyward Sword and ironically WarioWare then system might as well not sell as high as it is now. Those games can still pull in many consumers, especially when 3 out of the 4 you mentioned can be multi million sellers in japan. It’ll push hardware. lastly hardware supply is still not plentiful so regardless the system is still selling crazy high while selling out. It’s early to even consider what NSW can sell (as a baseline or as low) since demand hasn’t been met yet. I don’t think it’s as dire as you make it out to be. you see notable jumps when those releases, more so MPS/WarioWare. He’ll even SMTV |
It was not my intention to make things out as "dire". The Switch is in no danger. I just feel like their second half of the year lacks a big system seller like 2017/2018/2019 had and as such isn't quite as robust as it could've been if, say, they had Pokemon Legends in place of D/P or something. That's all. |
Your right, there is no game that is on that level.ironically 2022 seems like it can be a potential 2017 all over again with major releases. (Pokémon LA/BotW2/Splat3)
