| Nem said: Hey guys. So, it has become apparant to me with several game announcements and teases that the Switch is looking like it will suceed the 3DS aswell as the Wii U. This means that the Switch would have to sell about 80m to match the combined Wii U+3DS sales. What do you think? Will the switch sell above 80m or will Nintendo launch a sucessor to the 3DS? Would you still consider the Switch a sucess if it didn't reach those numbers? I'm curious to know what people think. |
Switch doesn't need to sell about 80m or to match Wii U+3DS sales, beacuse it can be success and actually make more profit for Nintendo than WiiU+3DS made even if sell less than Wii U+3DS combined.
Switch is in same time handheld so there is zero sense to release another handheld that's part of different platform where Nintendo would need again to support two different platforms, and that goes against everything Nintendo wants to achieve with one unified platform. But we will probably have Switch Mini/Pocket, that will be smaller and cheaper Switch just for handheld play.
In any case, I think that Switch will sell more than 80m.
