There's plenty of predictions that Switch 2 will have a hard time due to chip shortages or that sales will fall off a cliff. I think that's a terrible prediction because Nintendo should have locked in contracts for parts just before Switch 2 came out. And by 2-3 years' time when the AI bubble, that causes a parts shortage, pops Nintendo's contracts will run out and things will be fine.

A lot of idiots on the greater internet seem to think that Nintendo consoles go in boom/bust cycles. Wii was successful. Wii U Bombed. Switch was successful. Therefore Switch 2 bombs.

Oh, and as a day 1 DS owner I have never stopped laughing at the old DS vs PSP threads. PSP was awesome but it built it's own audience more than it took from the DS line's sales. Vita was okayish, but honestly 3DS was always going to stomp it.
