Well they better have Smash Bros coming out in 2018



Half-Life 3 exclusive to Nintendo Switch confirmed!



So the 25/30 million shipments rumor might be true after all. With Smash and animal crossing that's totally possible.



Around the Network

Right so new animal crossing and something like smash bros must be coming. Not sure about pokemon



Just release the biggest Animal Crossing yet coupled with lots of AA games like Pikmin and Fire Emblem and you’re done.

Switch’s biggest rival is its own supply.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

he better have the software.



Get Smash, Animal Crossing, and of course Pokemon out by this time of next year and those 20 million units are a given.



With Pokémon read for november or Animal Crossing
