good numbers,

20 million looks impossible.

It seems that Switch did not lose momentum, it's up compared to last year. ;)

I don't think you realise what impossible means, it harder but not impossible.

its very for a console to sell 10 million plus in a quarter and consoles  that have were selling much better then switch on a monthly bases.

Switch last year in October-December period sold 7.24m with Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade 2, this year in same time period have Super Mario Party, Pokemon Lets Go and Smash Bros Ultimate, only that is far stronger lineup compared to last year, plus Switch this year has plenty available bundles that didn't had last year. So with that all on mind, Switch could easily this year in same time period sell around 10m. Fact that Nintendo didnt changed 20m forecaste means they counting most for Holiday sales and Pokemon Lets Go and Smash Bros Ultimate.

Even if Switch dont hit 20m, it will be very close to that number in any case, like 17-18m in worst case.

nintendo never  downgrades there forecast,  well see what happens they will ne lucky to match last year shipments imo.
