Switch would’ve had this in the bag had it got a price drop like you’d expect a decade old console to get. Really frustrating

Nintendo does not care about an arbitrary number of consoles sold, they are a business about making money. Not lowering the price has so far probably made them more money than a price cut and reaching 160 M sold consoles would have.

That's pretty much it. This is an arbitrary number that no one thinks about except weirdo sales enthusiasts like us :D

If/When Nintendo does surpass the PS2 number, there will be about 4 hours of discussion about it in the media... although four months for us after four years of speculation.
