When I heard about the Switch, I'm guessing in the weeks following the reveal, I was like oh wow that actually looks really cool (after entirely skipping the previous gen because WiiU looked super uninteresting and awkward and poorly thought out).

Seemed pretty obvious to me Nintendo was back to what would be a successful system, though I would never have guessed it would be >155m level of success haha.


The "final console release" bit is pretty funny. Seems there are always people saying that about Nintendo. I remember after the Wii released and the whole world was obsessed with it, a roommate's friend came over and while I was playing it and he said "I heard this is Nintendo's last system and they're going third party after this" lol. I was like uhh why would they go third party after an incredibly popular system that is making tons of money??
