For how it'll do overall worse than the Switch is my expectation due to just how much that platform had going for it for most of its life. If the covid pandemic didn't happen the Switch 2 outselling it would be a lot more likely but I do think over 130m is more likely to happen than not so if it declines I don't expect it to matter that much. |
With prices being on the high side I'm less sure about it reaching 130m now though it's still no doubt gonna be a big success due to Nintendo being in an amazing place right now and the hardware being a very compelling upgrade. Due to the price there's definitely gonna be less people buying multiple Switch 2's compared to the Switch with more parents making their kids share a single Switch 2 instead of buying one for each child. With the Switch 2 Lite presumably costing at least as much as the current base Switch then it's for sure gonna do notably worse with poor people than the Switch. Assuming the Switch 3 or whatever isn't coming out till 2033 I'd say PS4/GB is about the lower end of where it'll end up with the 140's being the high end.
