Won't there be a chip shortage for the Switch as well? I need to find the article where someone claimed the there would be limited Switch manufactured this year. I could be wrong. In any route, I don't see the Switch hitting over 20 mil this year at all. I will say about 15-16m at best.

Nintendo themselves said they wouldn't be able to produce as much as they wanted. That said the shortages have already been a problem for Nintendo last year and they still moved like 25mil consoles. The Switch is less affected by the shortages than the other consoles. This year the shortages will loosen too, so they will definitely be able to produce more than what you say.

Oh so it was Nintendo themselves. I couldn't remember where I read it at. You said they moved 25 mil consoles?! Eh...you sure? That's a lot. If so, then that's super impressive and more than any console sold in a year in recent memory.

If the console shortage let's up, then I will adjust my prediction to 21 mil. Switch is certainly capable. I have 5 Switches in my household. We have certainly contributed to that rising number.
