There are still lots of Nintendo Doomers around, even though the Switch is doing very well.

Something about cliffs and shovelware. 

This site just isn't the same anymore without Geralt.

Well my prediction in this thread wasn't very good basically stating I didn't feel it would sell hugely until cheaper and more portable but I did at least admit I was hopeless at predicting nintendo numbers what with never understanding the mass appeal of the wii etc. I also can't help focusing on Europe rather than worldwide as that is where I am based. The Nintendo consoles I bought soon after launch were N64, Gamecube and wii u and loved them all but they never did that well commercially. When I bought a wii I spent more time on it playing my gamecube games than wii games at least for the first 2 years anyway. Not bought a Switch but intend to later but that's really because I'm not much of a portable gamer and Mario Odyssey is the only game I really want currently.

I did predict the wii u would flop though even though I bought one at launch. Many who predicted Switch success also predicted wii u success and have a general positive attitude to Nintendo products.

I have not been surprised at how Japan has taken to the Switch at all but must admit the US reception is far more positive than I expected, I was expecting it to be more inline with Europe.

Well, I think Geralt has a point, sure...I don't OBVIOUSLY agree it will sell less than 15 million but I don't think it'll be huge like many people think. The Switch right now is a "cool" item but I don't think it's a MUST in your household like a PS4 is. The PS4 is that must-have, FULL throttle entertainment system for the entire family. 100 million is the MOST I see it doing - and that's being generous! Realistically, somewhere around 80 million is more likely because I think it is a hot item now but I just don't see it lasting. Those would be amazing numbers for Nintendo anyway. It boils down to how many people actually LOVE their Nintendo franchises. I personally grew up on Nintendo but don't value these franchises like I used to when I was a kid. I could enjoy them but I simply can live without them. Games like The Last of Us or Shadow of the Colossus made such an impact on me I would display the steel books/box on the shelf.

This reads like a denial ridden Wii post from mid-2007.

The more interesting part is he defends the horrible geralt post, and after that says it could do 100 million. Right.....

To be fair, it still hasn't hit 15 million.

President Trump (geralt) knows one crucial thing. When he's going to start the nuclear war with North Korea.

It'll be before the Switch hits 15m.

Literally everything he said in this thread turned out to be the exact opposite of reality lol
