The Road to 160m+ for Nintendo Switch

[super_etecoon]

I don’t think Jim Ryan or Sony will make any more declarations, as funny as a joke
It is. And at the end of the day neither Sony nor Nintendo is likely to use these numbers as a cudgel against the other.

Where it matters is where it has always mattered…on boards, forums, twitters, and fanboy flame wars. So for those, Nintendo absolutely needs to sell 161 and not a single unit less to have a compelling argument at this point. And that will have to be done organically as Nintendo isn’t going to go out of their way to sell a million more units just so Nintendo fans can claim victory.

To be honest, I have to blink each time I see the sales for the Switch. Whether it surpasses PS2 or not it has absolutely earned itself a place in history, and off the equally impressive disaster the WiiU was, it has the mythology of a great comeback movie like Rocky or Karate Kid. I won’t be disappointed if it doesn’t eventually tackle the PS2, though at this point I don’t see how it doesn’t.
