My problem is that I intend to replace my OLED. I do not want a worse experience while using the device. Despite my consistent hair-splitting about sizing, the actual dealbreakers are the kickstand and especially the display. The Switch's LCD sucked on day one, and I don't think I could go back to it.
I don't want a worse experience in any way either. I think if hypothetically I had to lose the OLED on the newer device, I'd be really damn disappointed in Nintendo. I'd intended on trading up, but that alone might make me keep it as an extra system just for the less demanding titles that I'd never play on TV in the first place. I'm aware that decision is a luxury, and many can't or won't afford it. I hope Nintendo doesn't put us into the position where we have to make that type of decision.
Anyway, this is a speculation thread, and we're all shooting in the dark on quite a bit.
I assure you Nintendo does not give a rat's ass whether the switch is the best selling console or not. What they want is just the maximum amount of money. When they decide how to market the drake they will purely look at what will make them the most money, because they are a publicly traded company and that's what they exist to do.
And let's be honest, if Nintendo calls it a Switch 2, or any other even moderately successor-leaning naming (Super Switch, Switch Advance, etc), they could easily choose to report it in a sum of 'Switch family' numbers along with the breakdown. It's not like Apple has never reported iPhone sales over a span of years.
The only folks clinging to whether it'll be the best selling console of all time or not will be the forums. And even now we're getting arguments that 'it doesn't count' because it's a hybrid / 'Lite is not a console'. It's not Nintendo's battle.
