That's pretty conservative.
I don't think they will need a price cut or major remodel next year.

They'll have both anyway.
Model revisions are simply good for business. No two ways around it.
Next fiscal year they need to move 14-15 million Switch systems no questions asked at least if its going to have any shot at 100 mill within a reasonable time frame.
There will be a new Switch model next year, maybe even two (ala New 3DS XL and New 3DS regular).

Well, it's a prediction for 125m units. Still, why wouldn't Switch be around for a long time? Are you falling into the same trap as many others and believe that processing power is a cause for concern? |
No, I'm just taking a stab in the dark and thinking that 2024 seems too far into the future.
Switch is a very different product than even the Wii or DS ... it is not being driven by casual evergreen type fads, it will have a very different lifecycle IMO, it will be quite interesting.
It's the first Nintendo system to sell this well out of the gate mainly off well just regular software in a long, long time.
RAE_SHMURDA said: Definitely overestimating it. The console will likely do horrible in foreign markets like the Wii U did, and will do alright in the U.S. I'm looking more at 60-75m lifetime |
It will dominate Japan, spanking the PS4 around like a red headed step child, and do far better than the Wii U could ever dream of doing in Europe.

Possibly, I just think Switch will have a more difficult time in Europe/Australia due to it's price.

in bold.

No, 23m is not a record. Both the Wii and DS peaked higher. Switch 2 launch in 2020? |
Yep, I think when Playstation 5 & Xbox Two launch, Nintendo does a Switch 2.
The technology will have advanced enough to warrent it by then, and they ll want to try and keep atleast somewhat up with the other 2.
So they can still get some 3rd party support.
2020 or 2021.
It needs a MK8 every Month to sell 100 million times in 5 to 6 years. 1 million per month x 12 Month= 12 million per year x 6 years=72 million. Lets say an additional 8 million from xmas over 6 years = 80 million. An that is just the best case scenario. I predict between 65 and 70 million after 6 years.
