Switch will for sure outsell Wii's 2012.
Switch's 2025 sales are dependent on several factors
-If Switch gets a price cut
-When Switch 2 launches. A Q3 or Q4 Switch 2 release would probably help Switch a little. Q4 seems unlikely considering we're getting a Direct at the start of Q2.
-How Switch 2 does early on. If Switch 2 launches well before the holiday season and is a disappointment for Nintendo in sales, Switch could sell better than we expect.

The only scenario where Switch 2 is a sales disappointment is if it the launch price is too high like $500. I even think $450 would be pushing it. $400 is has been the widely speculated price point, and I think that's just right. If it's $350, that would be fantastic! But unlikely given Switch OLED is currently $350 and that would spell certain death for that model and also severely impact the base $300 model unless Nintendo cuts the price for all Switch 1 models.
