Switch's launch price was already 100$ lower than PS4 Amateur, and Lite is even more cheaper. Moreover, basically a half of Switch's sales, in some years more than a half, is done in Christmas/Black Friday period, while PS4 is closer to 35%.

What is happening right now, with Sony still not cutting prices and limits the amount of units with discounts during holidays, is insane.

Yeah, my experience is to get all Switch-related hype with a grain of salt, and it is still working.

So what? They are two different kinds of products. If PS5 is cheaper than Xbox Series X, can we then downplay PS5 sales because of this? Obviously not. Switch is selling just as fast as the PS4 did, if not slightly faster. The Switches lower price compared to PS4 at launch is a feature. It's a selling point, just like Sony used the PS4's power as a selling point (and that power came with a higher price tag). Why hold it against Nintendo that they are a clever company and designed their product the way the market wanted it? And just as a side note: There was a time when people said the Switch was way too expensive and would fail because of that. 

And why would you take the Switch-related hype with a grain of salt? We went from Nintendo going third party, to the Switch selling less than 20m units, to the Switch outselling the Xbox One, to the console being quite certain to cross the 100m units mark and now it looks like it can match lifetime PS4 sales. Why knowingly set yourself up to be proven wrong time and again? Basically, the optimists have been right each and every time. The Switch is obviously having a good run and has a great chance of beating its 2019 performance this year if the software-lineup is strong enough.

It will definitely hit 3m this year, but there is a rumor that a Fire Emblem remake was in the works for 3DS and got moved to the Switch, which I could see coming out this year or early next. I would argue that Three Houses will hit 4m before the next mainline game as I personally do not expect to see that until 2022 or 2023, depending on how prioritized it is.

My guess is 2022 because of the success of Three Houses and Heroes.

No, but I dont see Switch doin a lot better than N's forecast. They have to dry up the storage, and there is no point in building huge stock in the middle of the calendar year.

If it helps you to feel more comfortable, there are others like you who lie to themselves to cope with Nintendo's success. Know that you are not alone.

Games are strongly related to animes in Japan. 

Hahahahaha good joke. I'll take that bet. I say Nintendo will ship more than 1.7m this quarter, especially with Animal Crossing launching in it. Let's see if you will put your money where your mouth is.
