portable "console Mario" will have to go some to get over the N64 numbers,surely most casuals already game on the go these days on pads,pods and what not

what exactly are you saying here?

consoles need casuals to sell well is the gist

Who knows, I personally think it'll do pretty solid numbers of it's lifetime. (At least 20-30 million)

Edit: I keep forgetting it's more handhled than home console; so up that 20-30 million to 40-50 million, so long as the price isn't overkill that is.

Hard to say one way or the other. I admit that I am not personally excited about the system, but that doesn't necessarily mean much.

I'm rooting for it to do respectable numbers. Competition is good!

And this is coming from someone who owns a Wii U and 3ds, I just don't know anybody (including me) that isn't that psyched for the Switch.

I know people are going to say "Well I am" and yes I'm sure plenty of people online are hyped for it, but nobody in my town even really knows what a Switch is and those that do don't care for it. 

Not anything over 10m?  Without even knowing the price?  Because you and your friends don't like it?  
LOL.  Don't quit your day job.

It is a hybrid. You can watch the official trailer.

I said it will struggle to sell 40m. Its price will be its biggest hurdle. I'm thinking it will sell for $399.
