So .. console gaming was dead eh ? If we need to have that types of discussions who will sell more, than it's not dead. Sony is doing good, Nintendo is doing more than good, only if Microsoft could join the party .. I miss those 360 days .. We could have one interesting relatively close battle between the three now instead of just Sony and Nintendo ..

But yeah with launch like this, I don't think Switch 2 will sell anything below 100M lifetime. And that is the base minimum, I don't want to speak too soon, but it's looking very good for now. At this time I see it way more likely Switch 2 will sell definitely more than PS5 this year. It's holiday will be 10M at minimum, it can do another 5M by the start of November. So 20M for the year should be guarantee. While PS5 will end up somewhere around 16-17M.
