Congrats to Nintendo for the Switch. They did almost everything perfectly with the Switch marketing cycle and it still has a bright future in front of it. So it is now the 2nd fastest console to reach 100 millions only behind the mighty DS. Next week, it will take down the Wii and maybe the PS1. It should end the year between 102-104 millions.
2022 can still be a 20+ million year too imo. Demand will start getting lower on a weekly basis but the big titles will help maintain the total afloat. There is multiple occasion for Bundles and limited Switch edition next year, more availability for the OLED and of courseeeeeeeee a price cut.
Now, Nintendo please, i have been waiting on YEARS on some game to drop in pricing. Can you just enter the "cheap" cycle of the Switch's life with Nintendo select titles and a price cut already. I swear games like Fire emblem, Xenoblade, Metroid, Kirby, Donkey Kong, Pikmin would need it. These aren't franchises that have enough recognition to sell at full price with blind eyes. New consumers need a kick to try these and this will only be helpful knowing all these games have new titles coming sooner or later. Build the hype by allowing more people to play. |
Games launching in 2017 based on today's inflation would cost $68.67 back in 2017. There's the only price cut you're probably getting from Nintendo outside of sales. They'd be crazy to cut the price in this market/economy. Every month the dollar is weaker and their return on sales lower, they won't want to cut the full price down until the global economy stabilizes and we stop seeing these ridiculous inflation rates.
