You've got a reeeeeal problem with making vague claims and not providing any actual sources to back them up, you know that?

Again: Which analysts? You say the expectations aren't well kept secrets, so share those expectations and name those analysts.

I gave you an example that fit both a consensus sales miss and a consensus performance miss in the Paper Mario remake.

If you want the phone number of every random analyst because market consensus isnt enough, I dont have the time for that and am ok with your victory lap.

Nintendo literally releases more first-party titles than their console competition. The abundance of PC titles are irrelevant as Nintendo is not and has never been in direct competition with them.

Its not a direct competition so stop comparing them directly. We might have a breakthrough.

Its not the party, its the sheer amount of hyped games competing for limited dollars. If the Switch never existed and a Kirby game had to launch in an uncoordinated and unfavorable release time to compete with a cross platform library, its sales would not be the same as if it were sheltered from all that on the Switch.

Does that mean the Kirby game got worse? No, its the same game competing against math instead of having it in its favor.

"It runs better here" does not mean it ran poorly somewhere else.

I think hiccuping under 22fps is even merriam-websters definition of ran-poorly.
