So with the downward adjustment, Xbox Series must sell another 8 million consoles to hit the 40m threshold.
Doesn't sound like much, but with the way it's pace is slowing, it might still be out of reach.

Almost the same amount of units Switch needs to ship to reach the 160M number.

Nintendo sell their Switch 1 at like 50-100$ profit margins....
They could accept a loss on hardware sales, to just clear inventory and like give it a 100$ price cut (the normal switch unit, with the dock).

Even with the Switch 2 out.... I bet a 199$ Switch, would clear 8m in a year.
If they lose like 30-40$ on hardware sold (at a 100$ price cut), 1 game bought, by the consumer that gets the Switch, would earn that back for them.
Nintendo is going over 160m no problem.


Xbox selling like ~4m a year... and having multiple years in a row, where its down 30% or more year on year....  
They might not break 40m until like 2027 or later, at this rate.
