The momentum has definitely slowed down. This generation remind me a lot about the sixth generation of consoles. PS2 was selling way more than the completion, appealing to everyone, Xbox and Gamecube was having about equal sales and their own respective fan-bases.
Hopefully the Switch can get out of this and not be another Gamecube. While many loved the Gamecube, it is not a sustainable business if you're relying only on a small fan-base. Especially today because of how expensive games are to make. Metroid Prime and Super Smash Bros seems to be geared towards this hardcore Nintendo fan-base. A lot of people will probably hate that I am saying this, but I think it would be a good thing if Metroid Prime 4 had standard FPS controls so it would be more mainstream.
