Does Nintendo suck at making "Core gamer" consoles?

So one game selling well in switch destroys my point just no. The point is where are core games and the industry eating and where to gamers buy them on pc/ps5. Switch with out someone loving Nintendo is a super niche product not the same for other consoles where the whole industry is eating. 

Yes. It literally does destroy your point.
You only need 1 game to destroy your prior assertion, the fact I provided more than 1 title completely made a mockery of your assertion.

And now that I have destroyed your assertion you are shifting the goal post, which means you have lost your argument.

The Switch is not a super niche product, the fact that it is now ranked as number 3 of the best selling video game consoles of all time and is home to a plethora of amazing 3rd party games like Minecraft, Terraria, Skyrim, Monster Hunter, Fire Emblem, Bayonetta, Octopath, Borderlands, Assassins Creed, Witcher, Doom, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Diablo, Tony Hawk, Overwatch, Nier: Automata, Sonic and more.. It completely makes a joke of your prior posts.

The Switch is a brilliant handheld, it's home to a ton of successful 3rd party games... The fact that the Playstation 4/5, Xbox One/Series S/X will likely never match the amount of hardware units sold as the Switch is exactly the point that makes the Switch a non-niche' product.

You're missing the point. This thread is about comparing it other consoles/pc as core gaming console if you think it's a good one that's fine. I don't agree because most the great games are missing  and the sales reflect the samething where most of the industy is focused on ps5/pc. Also many of those ports are butchered versions.
