I don't think Switch 2 is going to do it either; In fact, I think Switch 2 will end up selling less than Switch 1. It's off to a record-breaking start, yes. But that 2020-2022 stretch for Switch 1 was otherworldly. It was selling at levels and rates we haven't seen since peak DS/Wii era. And yes, the pandemic played a substantial role in that as there was nothing to do during that period... except play video games. And unless something like that happens again, I don't see how Switch 2 will be able to replicate that pace or even maintain its current one. |
I much agree. The Switch 2 is selling fatser laegly due to Nintendo peparng the stock. The Switch 1 had the good fortune of the pandemic to relaly give it a uniquely sustained run. the Switch 2 almost certainly will not. Plus the greater price, the unlikeliness that software will be out as frequently and so on. Hence why I believe the Switch 1 is Nintendo's only chance, possibly ever, of overtaking the PS2s total sales.
