| S.Peelman said: Ironically since last time I said this, the Switch’s line has gone up a bit in Switch’s favor, but overall the gap difference seems to be flattening out slowly but surely. And obviously a flat line means it’s not getting closer and then it won’t overtake. When it’ll be completely flat is still up in the air though. It will be close either way. Switch will either end up just below DS and GameBoy, or beat both. |
.That's wrong. In the last three months alone Switch has caught up by close to a million units.
But more importantly, the DS is fast approaching its final lifetime figure, meaning that in six months from now it will be almost finished. Or in other words, from here on out it will only add 2.4m more to its current LTD figure. So in seven months from now (that's from April 2023 onwards) Switch will begin to gain rapidly on the DS, because Mario Kart 8's DLC support already tells us that Switch will be well supported all through 2023.
I don't think it will be close in the end. There's at least one more major Switch revision left, so ultimately Switch should end up ahead by at least one million units.
Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.
