It seems like the year 2017 has been great for Nintendo from a business standpoint in relation to sales regarding the Switch console.  Since its release the Nintendo Switch has reportedly sold over 4.7 million units worldwide.  However, despite the fact that Nintendo has earned an enormous amount of revenue from the Nintendo Switch within a few months it seems like they may be losing a lot as well.  

It has been recently reported that Nintendo has been ordered to pay iLife $10 million from a lawsuit regarding the Wii remote. Also, Nintendo still has their issues with Gamevice regarding the design of the joy con controllers.  It seems like the previous successes that Nintendo had in the past few years has been meet by some obstacles.  In fact there is a possibility that  The Nintendo Switch may be banned from being sold in electronic retail stores in the future altogether. As of right now we still have no idea on what is going to happen in the future but it seems things are going to be interesting between now and 2018.
