So now that we have a price and release date and shipment numbers (2 million)

Predict the first week sales of the switch

my prediction is 800k-1 million

I'm kinda optimistic that it will come very close to the shipment numbers.

2 million.

It's sold out on Amazon Germany, so you can guess that was the major shipment for Germany. It will pretty much come close to total shipments.
I've read somewhere that in September will be more units coming. That would take too long.

2 million

I hope they restock sooner seeing the positive response.

How are we going to know? Using Vgchartz?
Likes its FW sales? First month?

I would say 1.5mil FW WW

It should sell its initial shipment pretty quickly, maybe in the first month (1M first week, 2M first month, something like that?). There are enough Nintendo fans out there for that.

The real question is after that, and how the broad audience will buy it in the following months or the first year (and I'm a lot more sceptical about that).

It will sell the initial shipments for sure

how much did the ps4 sell fw?

edit: 1mill noo way switch is  going to  do that.

 i say 500-700k
