What they need is software. Up until splatoon 2 they are good. After they could do with a Mario, pokemon and monster hunter in Japan.
Really, the main thing they need is software, a lot of it. A bundle for the holidays would be good as well. Maybe a Mario Oddyssey, MK8 or Zelda bundle. I think those would be good.
Dance my pretties!

They need to do nothing but bring out what they've already said they are going to. Hopefully they'll be getting some good third party support though and maybe another first party game later this year.
Price cut this year will be absurd with how much they are selling. I could definitely see a christmas-only mario kart bundle though for $300 to compete with PS4 for holiday sales. Price cut to $250 next year though for sure.
I see them selling around 13-15 million Switches this year if they ship enough of them, 10 million is pretty much a lock.

Whoever said that had well over his limit of jack daniels. |
you are correct. But they can make a bundle prior Black Friday
Nothing, they are selling all the NS they can produce, and the only thing they need to do is produce the 10 million of NS units to get that number.

You say the same thing for the 3DS? That was less than 6 months from launch.
It depends on sales. If they remain steady, Nintendo won't touch the price. If they start dropping in a month or two, Nintendo will have to cut the price. Remember, this is Nintendo's only HW for the coming years. It HAS TO succeed, or they will have to really look at the possibility of going 3rd party and/or mobile.

Totally different situation, 3DS from start sold less than Nintendo predict and expected, Switch is quite opposite, its selling better and demand is stronger than Nintendo expected.
Sales will almost certain not drop, MK8D is launching tomorrow, and then we have ARMS and Splatoon 2, and we know for sure that Splatoon 2 will set Japan on fire, so Switch will stay strong through summer, and later we will have some other games and offcourse huge new 3D Mario for holiday season.

The 3DS still did better at launch. It shipped almost 1M more in its first quarter.
As for sales, we'll have to wait and see.
They'll sell 10 million with their current lineup.
