Hard to tell. In Japan could be a huge success, but maybe not so much in America and Europe.

Honestly?

100m. I think the hybrid gimmick will make a lot of casual Nintendo fans comfortable in getting as a secondary console. If they can market it as high end tablet that would surely help them selling above 75m. As someone who didn't get a 3DS and Wii U, combining the two together into one efficient purchase is suddenly a lot more appealing. However we can only gauge so much from paper, we really need to see how Nintendo are going to package this thing.

over 75 mil. they are not going to repeat the same mistake of Wii U and usually Nintendo learns...

Gamecube/Wii
Wii U/ NX



Switch!!!

Well first off if the Rumors are true this thing is a Handheld that can be used as a console.

So lets look at Nintendos Handheld market, has any of their handhelds sold less then 30 million units?

Even looking at the Charts now if the 3DS was classed as a console it would be the number 1 selling console in the world.

I think this alone should give a good impression of what a new nintendo handheld can do, Never mind that it could possibly be used as a Tablet too and well i think this thing is going to sell like hot cakes and thats just based on the rumors.

Has any handheld ever successfully been priced as a console? People won't be willing to drop more than $250 for a handheld. Just look at the 3ds. It was a flop when it started out at $250, but it was saved when it dropped to $180

We can't ignore that it is both a handheld and console (and likely a tablet). This will certainly effective its percieved value and ability to sell at a higher price $299.

The 3DS was averaging 80k a week when it was performing badly, with no compelling software and no clear justification for its fairly high price (unless you see 3D as justification).

Its a handheld you hook up to your TV...

It could potentially sell as much as the 3DS has, and then some, because it ll be the only "console" option from nintendo this time, so not only will it sell to the handheld users, but also to the people that buy nintendos home consoles.

If nintendo play its cards right, the NX should atleast go over 50m lifetime.

Unless a lot of people who bought a 3ds were not happy with their purchase or don't like gaming on handheld any more.

Look how big Pokemon Go is currently.

With a tablet style console, Im sure that ll be on it as well.

Maybe Pokemon Go 2 is exclusive to NX?

Even if its not, just pokemon alone makes sure most nintendo handhelds sell well.

Pokemon go is so successful because it works on a device that people already own. I doubt people other than die hard Pokemon fans (i.e. those millions who bought XY) are going to buy an NX for it.

I can only speak for myself. I bought Pokemon Y, have been playing Pokemon Go with friends and have zero interest in NX unless they make a proper Nino Kuni style pomemon game for it.

Depends on pricing and games offered. I'd say the floor is 25 million given has a unified library and portable capacity.
