Okay. Judging the vibes and seeing such a group of gamers who are contantly fighting come together in union and rip this apart and by some of the very good points I've seen made, I'm starting to believe this might be a Wii U situation. I still have a feeling that it'll do better but relative to the Switch as Wii U was relative to the Wii, I'm more inclined to lean in that direction than say a little under the 3ds which I was suspecting. Time will tell, it's going to be interesting and part of me as I've seen many other express thinks it should fail, it would be for the better if it failed for Nintendo Consumers alone but everyone else too.

Going by online vibes and the opinions of gamers is probably the worst thing you can do. Going by those metrics the switch pokemon games would be the worst selling in the series history instead of the 2nd and 3rd best. Or assassin's creed shadows would be bombing instead of having one of the biggest launches in the series history. 

I do think the switch 2 will likely sell significantly less than the 1st but I very highly doubt it will be anywhere close to a Wii U situation.
