Who in this thread was arguing the Switch was on DS's scale though? Why even compare it to DS to begin with? It just comes off as an attempt to downplay as almost every system ever seems low when you put it next to DS.

I edited my post now, you can go check it, added some more thoughts ..

As for this .. no I am not comparing it directly for what you've said. I was just telling that there is a way to sell 500k in the summer and without games, the things you mentions in your original post. That's it. I am not downplaying anything and I am not even touching any other system let alone saying which is successful and which is one. All I am saying is that when you have the power, period without games or new model releasing soon or even summer can't stop you. And fun fact, switch began dropping in spring so the summer is not playing role here, neither is the new model, since it was announced just 2 week ago.

That does not rule out the upcoming new model and summer doldrums from contributing to sales numbers this month and last though. A system's sales are influenced by multiple factors.
