I love how the Ash guy says the Switch story is over because the Switch is *only* doing similar numbers to PS4 in a comparable period in its life (2015). Even if his 16 mil prediction came true (looking less likely as more chatter about holiday performance comes out), 33.8 mil is a very healthy number after only 25 months. The idea the system needs a 100 dollar price cut after selling 17 mil though - Pachter's prediction - is completely mental.

And the article and analysts are also blatantly ignoring positive occurances RIGHT NOW. Software is going to cruise past projections, Mario Party has substantially outperformed expectations, Pokemon Lets Go has sold very well and had a substantial impact on hardware sales, and Smash is the most preordered Switch game yet.

Articles like this are why these analysts and sites like Bloomberg come off as utterly out of touch.  I mean for goodness sake ALL of these predictions would have the Switch UP vs FY 2018!
