     @coolboymew Remember the Microsoft/Activision vs FTC hearing where everyone involved couldn't stop talking about Nintendo and how successful they are

     @catto @coolboymew but one of the sides repeatedly said that Nintendo doesn't count.

     @coolboymew There was a stream and one time the judge said something like
     
     "So the Nintendo Switch outsells your console, and you can take it on the go as well. Isn't the Switch kinda... better than yours then? :BlobCat_Think: :BlobCat_Think: :BlobCat_Think: "

     @catto @coolboymew Nintendo's in the best position they've been in since the Wii because they finally made a handheld gaming console that doesn't have sub-par specs relative to the competition, and their competition in that realm is literally cell phones and a niche gaming computer that costs more.
     
     Even with "gaming phones" existing they absolutely lack any sort of games for the most part and have a terrible OS for gaming running on them.

     @Pawlicker @catto It's the Wii strategy again, but in a form factor that makes it more acceptable for the average user

     Speaking of, some of the games it runs leave me amazed. For how old it is and how tiny it is some switch games look just really good.

     @coolboymew @catto last console I bought was a PS3 (barely used it, so last console I actually used was my PS2) and honestly I cannot think of any reason to buy a console instead of a real computer. I could maybe see some appeal to portable stuff like Steam Deck, Nintendo Switch and UMPCs, but that's about it

     TotK is suspiciously absent from this list.

     Yeah, it says the White Book list is comprised of titles selling over a million copies, but BotW made it. There's also a link there to the official numbers from Nintendo's financials which has TotK at 18.51M. Just seemed like kind of an oversight to leave off the biggest Switch release of the year.
