Nintendo expects to sell 25-30 mil Switchs this year, those goals haven't been set because they expect the system to get anywhere near that number off of ports like NSMBU. I'm sure they're betting on Labo to be big, and so am I, but also nowhere near enough on its own to reach that target with just a year of ports. They're gonna have something major or two up their sleeve on the software front. I'm still not ruling out both Pokemon and Animal Crossing hitting in Q4. Holiday sales for the system would be insane off the backs of those two and would make total sense with their sales expectations for the year. At least one of those two will hit this holiday. I think they have an impressive Q3 and Q4 up their sleeves and are holding off on revealing most of the games because they want all the attention on Labo for the first half of the year. Then around E3 they will unveil this year's heavy hitters. The other thing that makes this sketchy is why on earth would they release an NSMBU port over a Mario Maker one? That would make zero sense. Nintendo has been way too on their game to do something that stupid. |
We will not ofical plan for next fiscal year (we will have next year), but Kimishima said they are planning around 20m to ship in 2018. FY year, not 25-30m.

Those are ports of games that were only on Wii U that had very small user base that Switch already passed, and its not like that Switch will have only old ports this year.
