I don't think we can really judge by the sales after launch, the real test will be holiday 2017 when it is competing with PS4 and XB1 (scorpio?) for holiday sales.
I think Nintendo's biggest problem right now is pricing. $300 isn't bad, but that gets you nothing - the console can literally do nothing out of the box (Versus a PS4/XB1 which are media machines, at least.) The $50 for 1-2 switch is their biggest failure of this launch, hopefully their plan is to pack it in the box later in the year and are just using it as a cash grab right now.
- slantyyz 10y ago>> the real test will be holiday 2017 I agree. I think by that point, all the die hard Nintendo fans will likely have picked up a Switch, and then most of the buyers will be "normals", and it's interesting to see what they would choose.
