The Road to 160m+ for Nintendo Switch

Nintendo could easily get it over 160 if they even lifted a finger to do so. Youre assuming if they had it on the market until 2030 and they conducted business as usual then it might have a hard time getting there. Id agree that seems to be the case, but if they continued to market it and cut the price like how sony did with the ps2 then theyd have no issue crossing 160. Itd be easy. 

The same goes for the DS as well. The same goes for the PS2 as well (well not the pricecut since it already was at 99$ at the end, but if they continued to sell it I mean, since it was selling around 4M per fiscal years, before it was discontinued because of the start of the PS4 production).

I mean all three console could've sell more if their manufacturer did the necessary steps. PS2 could reach 170 or 180M if it was another 5 years on the market (since it did 4M per year in it's last few years). Switch with price cuts too could reach those numbers. DS if it wasn't 3DS announced and released so soon would sell at least 10 to 20M more too.
