Now that we have an expanded vision of Nintendo Switch’s first year game lineup, let’s share some updated predictions.

My updated prediction for lifetime Nintendo Switch Sales - 110m



Around the Network

I could see this console surpassing the 150M mark thanks to rocket league.



"I've Underestimated the Horse Power from Mario Kart 8, I'll Never Doubt the WiiU's Engine Again"

80m or so

Reason:

The majority of Nintendo's fanbase will migrate over being the only platform now (I ain't trying to hear any of that but but they said this malarkey they said similar things with the DS) with the entire library on one platform, being the only portable system as well we should see some Vita owners migrate over as well and some new gamers may be brought into the userbase as well.

With Pokemon on the way NS is going to get a massive boost.



I'm still not convinced on over 100m. I said 65-75 million before, gonna raise it to 80-90 million.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

I started off really low and I will now raise it to 50-60 million max right now with 1/3 coming from purely Japan.



 

Around the Network

I don't think it'll hit 100m without major third party support, and they haven't done anything to cultivate that audience.

We'll see I guess.

Switch is doing the worst in japan and the best in the US. Might want to update your numbers.



I'll go with the 80 to 100 million range. All current signs are positive for the Switch.



Signature goes here!
