Could the Switch surpass the PS2 in sales?

PS2 has a massive *

Probably 20-30 million PS2 sales, at least, came from people simply wanting a cheaper DVD player and not even interested in games.

Anyone who buys a NS does so to play games. NS won this battle already.

PS2 tie ratio was 9.68 games per console sold

Switch 8.58 games per console sold 

Your guess do not look grounded in reality 

PS2 launched in an economically successful era. The housing market collapse didn't happen until 8-9 years after PS2 launched.

NS launched in 2017 and by the beginning of 2020 the global economy went to the toilet. Shortages, mass layoffs, stock market values plummeting, mass inflation. People got really picky on what they spent money on for 1/2 to 2/3rd's of the NS' life cycle, and yet it *still* came close to having a better games to console ratio than the PS2.

And that's without even going into the fact that towards the last few years of the PS2's life they sold it for dirt cheap so people would buy more games, inflating those numbers more, whereas Nintendo is still selling the NS at a large profit point per console sold.
