If the Switch's sales take a big hit in the middle of its life to late life, it won't be because of PS5 and XSX. Switch is in a very interesting spot that it's in the middle of its life when the competition launches their next-gen hardware. I know Switch isn't a direct competitor, but it's still somewhat of a competitor due to being a video game platform that can act as a home console. We'll likely get Switch 2 (or whatever it will be) in 2023 or 2024 which will be the middle of the life of PS5 and XSX. It will be interesting to see how their sales are impacted then, and how Nintendo's are. |
Well, when Switch came out midway through the life of PS4 and Xbox One, they didn't affect each other's sales.
