We're not in PS3 territory here, we'd be in Xbox One right after they 180'd and launched in the worst case scenario for Switch 2.
PS3 was a home console with then up-to date specs for a generational leap, but the price was outrageous.
Xbox 360 delivered in the specs department and had more games people wanted. Wii was an engineering potato, but had Nintendo games people wanted to play.
Knowing what we know right now, 20 million units from June 5 2025 to June 4 2026 could be a tough ask. But 10 million a tough ask? Highly unlikely.
Switch 2 might be more expensive than we hoped, especially for games and the Pro Controller, but there's still a lot to get people excited.
