@SLIGEACH_EIRE But you can say that about any console version of Minecraft! Plus this is less so a port of the Wii U version of minecraft than the switch version of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was a port of the Wii U copy. People would be largely unhappy if this console did not receive a copy of Minecraft, Its a third party game thats expected on relevant consoles.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE The lack of TV ad is certainly true , but the word of mouth not so true from my experience, I don't remember anyone other than my one fellow Nintendo fan friend speak of the Wii u at launch , but even my dad knows about the switch and he hasn't played a console since the n64 , I've even seen people in college play their switches, with it gathering attention.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Its because we're like a condensed UK market , in that we aren't Nintendo centric fans and tend to have bad tastes in video games :/ Though still far better sales and I hear a lot more word of mouth than the Wii U did. So there's that !
@Switch81tch very similar actually, sadly..but still selling well as it seems to be sold out in limerick city where I live ,although for some reason a store called Smyth's says it has some online :/ A friend was annoyed at that.
