I couldn't disagree more. Other than Pokémon their first-party releases have been pretty much flawless this generation, it's arguably the strongest lineup of games any Nintendo console has ever seen. There's a reason the Switch is currently in route to become the best selling console of all time. That's not an excuse to their legal team shenanigans, of course, but credit where credit is due.

I'm sure the fact that Nintendo systems sell well with families and has been massively cheaper than a ps5/Xbox series x plus been available for much longer and there's been very little stock problems unlike the ps5 has nothing to do with why its one of the top selling systems... Comments like yours always read like propaganda as they never mention other factors than games.

Why, just because I decided to leave my honest opinion instead of trashing Nintendo like every other comment here? I can see where people are coming from with their complaints but to say Nintendo's games have been disappointing is absurd. Yes, there are other factors contributing to these sales numbers, and none of them would matter at all if the Switch didn't also have great games on it.
