Forecast? So they'll be off by 3 million?



Megiddo on 31 January 2019

Wow they only shipped 14.5m so far? I was expecting close to 16m.

Switch hardware is right where I expected, but the forecast is strangely low. It was up 9% in Q2 and up 30% in Q3, but they expect Q4 to be down by 14%?

Also it still blows my mind that people still use "sold" as opposed to "shipped" when discussing these financial reports. You would think that eventually people would learn.

Well it seems i was right about switch being flat WW this year time for people to eat some crow, though i was diffidently wrong about it being flat in the US. I told you guys switch is weak in Europe compared to playstation, the fact that it can't outsell the Americas, with europe and the ROTW combined, just shows how weak it compared to playstation. .

also switch last year was in tight supply after the holidays that's why it had a huge Q4 shipping wise.

Being 2.5 million ahead of last year is flat?

Anything to downplay Nintendo at this point.

 

on topic of them being off 3m. I could've sworn there was a member here that predicted that to a T.  Forgot who.

Now that they have lowered their forecast, I'll stop believing that they can get to 20m shipped.
