I know this is unbelievably obnoxious, but slow and abrupt are complete opposites in meaning...
As for Samus Returns, I can't imagine Nintendo was expecting massive numbers...
Considering how quickly consumers embraced the Switch and forgot about the 3DS, I'm sure they weren't blindsided by underwhelming sales...
