| The_Liquid_Laser said: People are still lowballing the Switch. At the end of the current FY, total shipments will be around 153-154m. At the end of the next FY, shipments will be around 163m. After that it will sell just a few million a year, but it will likely be around 170m when manufacturing stops. I have witnessed a lot of wishful thinking about Switch sales just stopping for the past 7 years, and people are still doing it. There is still a Pokemon game on the way, and yet people are assuming that Switch sales have to fall off a cliff at some point. Folks, the cliff is never coming, and it never was coming. Expect gradual declines instead. |
170 million? I don't know. How can it get there? I am even willing to bet my head that it won't do numbers this high, but no lower than 155 million, expect the Switch 2 is an upgrade/ not a sucessor. I see 155 million as the floor for march 2027 and discontinuation no earlier than that date. IF Nintendo gets to around their FC (153 million/ 154 million) the PS2 is a lock. If not (152 m- 153) we will have to wait till march 2026 to find out if it has a chance in 2026/27.
