Explain your overly pessimistic prediction

Barring a steep economic downturn, which is very much possible, I see the switch beating the DS. Why do I believe it can beat the DS? Because of a higher market penetration in developing countries. The DS didn’t do very hot in those markets (price could be a problem for the Switch  in those markets though). I see the Switch selling an average of 18-20 mil a year  from now until the end of 2024.

Now, of course I am also being very optimistic with Nintendo’s software output, but I have to be, because the Switch is Nintendo’s only console and they have to make the most out of it.  The concentration of resources on one platform will greatly benefit the Switch. In my opinion, the potentially best games for the Switch are yet to come.
