This thread will be gold in 2 years time

I still think that this is early for predictions. But a 100 millions? The funny thing is that only Nintendo fanboys are predicting these kind of numbers

 Or stuff like : "it will sell more than the 3ds"

 

It s funny. Mostly because only a person with no knowledge about the video game market would say stuff like that.

Right now from what we know about the switch my guss is on 35 tops. Because third party support looks like crap (just dance, old skyrim remastee, sonic... this is like the WiiU all over again), it will be underpowered in comparison to the One and Ps4, it will be too big and don t have enough battery to be a good enough handheld, and it will be at least 299, which is not a good price for a handheld.

 

So well, if I m wrong on a number of those, mainly third party, I guess it could sell more, but never a 100. The wii sold a 100 millions because even parents andgrand parents where buying them to play wii sports and wii fit.

There is no way this demographic will buy an NS.

The switch is great for two kinds of people : Nintendo fanboys, ps4/one/Pc gamer who are hardcore gamers and wants another gaming system on the side.

 

A 100 millions is not even in play here. 

This post is exactly what I mean. Making assumptions based on nothing, thinks the hardware being weaker than the competition means weaker sales, pretends like it's only a handheld. Shows clear lack of market knowledge and understanding while pretending to know it better. People like this are no loss to any forum.
