Though Nintendo has a history of discontinuing its older consoles without missing a beat, there's reason to believe this won't happen with the Switch.

When it comes to hardware sales, Nintendo usually doesn't fail. From the smash success of the DS line, all the way back to their roots with the NES and even some of their more unorthodox hardware. It's hard to think of a Nintendo console not doing well.

Donkey Kong Country Returns' was one of the very best games on the Nintendo Wii, and now it's back and better than ever on the Switch.
