| Torpoleon said: @FarleyMcFirefly Assuming Nintendo at least comes close to their software forecast for this FY, I would think that 1.5 billion for software would be pretty easy to achieve. Even though hardware would usually crater after a new system launches and I expect no major games on Switch 1 after Switch 2 launches (unless Z-A & Prime 4 don't release on Switch 1 until after Switch 2 launches), software sales typically don't grind to a halt. I think Switch software can still be decent for a few years after Switch 2 launches especially if there is backwards compatibility and performance upgrades. GBA games didn't stop being sold until like 2011 I believe and 3DS games are still selling. Both were/are basically nothing at those points, but it's several years after a successor launched. |
Oh my goodness. I completely forgot to take BC into account. If it keeps selling it could end up #1 in both hardware and software. Crazy to think.
