That lower production rate was not because of a lack of confidence, but rather shortages in parts they couldnt do much about.

 

And in general,e veryone is reading to much into this, its probably just a PR statement to make shareholders more satisfied. They will probably realistically make 15-20 million units, not much more than that.

That is one narrative. If they planned the release correctly there wouldn't be a reason to not be able to produce more, because even with the analysts puting the other products that affected the components for Switch, they sold dozen Millions, so it wasn't like Nintendo wouldn't be able to produce more if they planned and had confidence.

Nintendo can't make this type of PR because that would manipulate market and stock and is a crime (this isn't a real Nintendo PR), and my questioning is to people thinking it is reasonable to produce 30M planning to ship 20M.

That sums it up. These other products were selling millions, and took a lot of the parts nintendo needed, resulting in shortages. Without any sort of evidence to back up "they had no confidence", I'm assuming youre pulling this out of your ass.

And.....how is this a crime?? Are you kidding me?? Has to be a joke, right??
