Do you realize my account has been active for more than 5 years before phenomajp even posted a post or comment in this site? I'm pointing this out because you're always pushing the same narrative instead of just using actual arguments, and we all know why is that, you want so bad that the Switch never get that best-selling console ever title.

You simply visit the site for a long time, and use all the accounts. The date of creation does not matter at all and is not connected to anything. I can create one account in 2009, one in 2012, one in 2015, one in 2018, one in 2022, and one in 2025 and can enter through every and write from every of them. So stop the bullshit. The writing pattern is also the same, you write as yourself phenomajp, the words you are using, the sentences you make, the behaviour you have. Stop lie everyone. And again talk in plural form just like you did in the past. Talk from everyone. Don't you understand already that you are alone in this world ? No one is with you .. Oops sorry, my mistake, your alternative accounts are with you . Another thing, how come you all of a sudden that haven't exchanged posts with me became so sure about me wanting the Switch to never get a title ? This is so phenomajp's... You aren't even hiding .. Here is another example, I am active in this forum for more than 6 years now, and till now I've been only attacked in such a way by you phenomajp, not anyone else. So what are the chances after more than 6 years, and after a period of constant accusations from you, now some other user with 20 posts to be jumping on me the same way you does phenomajp ? Zero! That's you. How big coincidence has to be, in that big time period no one else would beef with me, but only you, and now some random nobody jumping on me just 2 days after our last argument ? What are the chances ? So again, stop the bullshit, I know it's you, and everyone who put little time to read your posts will also reach to the same conclusion. And by the way, I've written very good post to you in that screenshot I upload in my previous post, go take a look at it again, and read it, it's the quoted part. I forgot I did such a good post about you. When I told you no one supports you and likes you, you answered from your alt. account, to prove me that there is one who is on your side (which is essentially you) and even thanking to yourself.

About the Switch .. even If you were right, me wanting so bad or not does not change anything. So why bother ? Why do you care and what difference does that make to you ? If I want this I can't and won't change the future or the facts that will happen with words or texting. So what's the point ? If it happens I can't do anything. And if it does not, my words does not contribute for that.

Also why do you ignore what I wrote ? I simply took the more likely outcome, you obviously didn't understand my initial post about that, cuz it was about the performance Switch may have from 2027 and after that, and only in the case Nintendo actually decides to leave it on the market, which is very far from sure to begin with. How is your example fair (since you say mine isn't) when you give me years of consoles selling 8M+ and 6M+ where Switch's current year will be below that, let alone 2027, the year for which my point was in the post ??? Also if you don't like my comparison do one yourself, don't start to attack, to spin the things in some sick way only to work in your favor to hate on me. The example was simply about 2 or 3 of the very last years of consoles, since the post was about those last 2-3 years of the Switch IF NINTENDO DECIDES for those to be the years from 2027 to 2029/2030. Which can very likely be not the case and simply discontinue it after 2026 ends. So how you are expecting me to put 5 years of 3DS against 2 or 3 years at max for the Switch ?? Maybe you want every possible example and scenario to fit your dream of Switch reaching and breaking 160M, not me wanting the opposite as you say (where in reality I am simply realist and lay down the most likely scenario in my opinion, again in the case of Nintendo deciding to leave it till 2029/2030).

And why throw PS2 in the mix ? If Switch was following PS2 legs it wouldn't drop from 16 to 12 to around 5M this year. Why even including it in there ? This was discussion sometime in 2023 and 2024, it's late for that at this point, cuz if Switch was going after PS2 legs, first it wouldn't drop so much in such little time, and second it wouldn't be at the level the PS2 was in it's very last year where it did around 4M. Switch is already cratering, at a pace PS2 never did. Going from 12M to not more than 5M this year. So no, it doesn't fit the example. And with the price hike, I can guarantee you Switch won't magically continue to sell 5M each year till 2030 or even close, to be okay to compare it to PS2's last years. It's already at 60k per week, and in January it was at more than double of that, and we are yet to see the real baseline the Switch will settle at after the launch month of Switch 2.

Also my point was simply about the people who say that it's like guarantee the Switch to pass 160M if it's left on the market for few more years, and all I am saying is that no, some 2-3 more years of sales level around 5-10k per week won't make much, it can make 1.5M at best. So if it hasn't reached at least 158.5M by end of 2026, I don't see 2-3 years more on the market to help it pass 160M. If it does then sure, no doubt. And if somehow it's selling 20k or something like that for those 2-3 years, then sure, it can happen, but I can't see it doing that much in 2027 and after, when it's at ~60k now, let alone how much will continue to drop this and next year.
