Switch 2 is out, and it's selling like peak periods. Switch 1 is dropping from over 500k in the first months of the year, to doing close to 250k in the last few months. The year is -52% until end of October from it's 2024 year for the same period. How much do you think it will sell for both months combined, and even separate ? Write your opinion and vote.

I think two million for Q3.



1.9-1.95 million, barely missing 2 million is what I'm thinking



1.8 million



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Just over 2M is my guess

Judging based on JP Famitsu figures, I’d say 1.4-2.1mil. Switch 2 has had some pretty solid deals (e.g. $450 MKWorld Bundle) and Switch 1 is fighting with a recent price hike in US: I believe figures will be a bit lower than many are expecting. Switch 2 will make up for lost Switch 1 momentum, however, likely moving close to 10mil units during the holiday quarter.



The recent trend is it being 60% down YoY which would land it at 1.7m if that continues. That's what is happening in Japan so far with November being about 60% down but the most recent week in Spain the black Friday week was about 80% down so it looks like it might hold up better in Japan than elsewhere this holiday season and if so around 1.5m seems likely. I voted for 1.5-2m but wouldn't be surprised if it falls a bit short of 1.5m.
