PS2/PS4/PS5/Xbox 360/GBA weren't new concepts but they still sold really well and motivated people to upgrade.

Here.

We have four lightning in a bottle consoles: PS2 DS Wii (Though potential faltered. It started off as such) and Switch. They all have something in common; A gimmick or novelty that attracted those beyond the gamer crowd. Those 160mill PS2 sales include millions of people who bought because "console that plays my DVDs!?". Here is the thing about these type of consoles; They never work twice. A perfect example is DS -> to 3DS. A large drop off in max sales because all of those gimmick/novelty buyers didn't return for the 3DS because it wasn't a gimmick/novelty anymore.

I think Switch 2 will experience the DS - 3DS sales drop. It is not doing 140+mill again dude. Its has no lightning in bottle buff.

What's your prediction, 80 million?



Playing Xenoblade 2 before I buy Xenoblade 3 (otherwise I couldn't wait to play 3).

Can they announce a new Fire Emblem? A remake of Genealogy or Tellius would suffice !
