You won't find any logic to his arguments, because he's purely here to downplay Nintendo and poison discussion.

Best to just ignore his nonsense.

I somehow think that in a timeline where GTA VI is released on the Nintendo Switch 2 is a timeline where it sales fewer units than one where it won't get the game.

It was obvious what I meant, you're just being awkward. All the main franchises already exist on Switch 1. Yes, they won't be able to play the newest game in that franchise if it's exclusive to Switch 2, but most people I think are just going to stick with Switch 1 instead of buying Nintendo's most expensive system ever. 

If people don’t want to play sequels, which is what you’re saying, why do they want to play GTA6?

Well, it's not often that "big" isn't correlated to sales. But yes. GTA 6 is going to be played by more people this gen than any other game and by a country mile. It's the industry's crowning jewel right now. The game to end all games.

I dont see it. I mean GTAV didnt end all games, so Im not sure what you are expecting GTA6 to do. Its going to be a big game that many will play and some will play it online for years to come. Just like GTAV.

Yet I won't touch it, and I've never touched 4 or 5. Many games have come out and have done well since GTA V. There is no such thing as a game to end all games, lol.

Yes, I know my logic could also be applied to GTA 6, but that will be a record breaking game. People will buy a new console to play it.

No checkmate. GTA 6 is record breaking in terms of popularity. Just look at the viewership on the latest trailer

Nah. It'll be fine.

For the most part, people buy Nintendo systems to play Nintendo games. That's the main attraction. Sure, there's been some notable third-party successes on Nintendo platforms over the years, but the list of best-selling games on Nintendo systems since the turn of the century has been dominated by first-party titles. Nintendo has seen more successes than failures, and the failures they have had are explicable in terms other than "Major third-party title wasn't present."

The Wii did exceptionally well, selling over 100M units (only the third home console to do so) and outselling its main competitors by a healthy margin, and it did so without GTA, Final Fantasy, Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, Batman: Arkham, BioShock, several COD games (the ones it did get didn't sell nearly as well as they did on 360 & PS3), and a whole host of other third-party games popular at the time. The DS became only the second system to sell over 150M units despite the only big third-party games being Dragon Quest IX, Lego Star Wars, and the Professor Layton games. The Switch succeeded with only two third-party games in its Top 25 most popular games: Monster Hunter Rise (#24) and Stardew Valley (#25). It didn't get COD, Red Dead 2, Cyberpunk 2077, Final Fantasy, Elden Ring, and a bunch of others.

Though the Switch 2 is getting belated ports of some of those PS4/PS5 games I mentioned, I'd argue that it doesn't need them to succeed, nor does it need GTA6 or any other big multiplatform third-party title. Those things are nice to have, but I'd argue they're not integral to its success. Arguably since as far back as the N64, Nintendo systems have stood or fell on how well Nintendo supported and marketed their systems. With the Switch line in particular, Nintendo has always had the handheld console market on lock. And they've been generally doing their own thing since the Wii anyway, so they need to do more to be like PlayStation or Xbox. The Wii U was their sole flop in the past 20 years, and it failed because of bad marketing/messaging and a severe first-party software drought in its first year, not because of a lack of major AAA third-party titles.
