i'll be bold and say >150mil. Much stronger start than NSW, might lose some ground midgen, but it'll prolly hold similar leg strength. I expect NSW2 to do about as good ” if not, a slight bit better (or possibly worse) ” than NSW. (Not to mention: The competition is currently self-imploding¦)

This is definitely possible since the Switch 3 or whatever probably won't be released till late 2033 and 8.5 years is a very long time to build up sales. Though for the competition part something to keep in mind is there's gonna be more competition in the handheld space than the Switch got which could matter some.

that’s fair. My comment on competition was more directed toward Sony’s current live service situation (likely meaning there could be a bit of a drought for a little while…not to mention their aggressive pricing behavior as of lately) and Microsoft’s gradual shift to 3rd party, though the handheld space has become a whole lot more competitive than since 2017. Steam Deck, ROG Ally, etc. certainly fill a void in the industry.
