| Alistair said: Everyone writing things, nobody responding to what he actually said. He said something completely non-controversial. He said it is tracking 8m, so 20m will be very hard to sell without a price drop. Tracking is a linear projection, and he's right. He never made a prediction for 8m sales, he said it is currently tracking 8m. He made no prediction. Just suggests that 20m is very unlikely. |
You're sounding like an apologist. Saying that "2 million this quarter is tracking to 8 million over the next year) is the same as saying that a 12 million Christmas quarter is tracking to 48 million for the next year.
Switch is currently tracking toward a 17-18 million year when you count in the proper weights of quarterly sales; even using weights is inaccurate since Nintendo under-shipped the Switch in Q1 on account that they sold an estimated 700,000 more units than they shipped.
He's just a shit analyst when it comes to videogames.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
