IMO there isn't going to be a "Switch 2" in a traditional sense. There will be new Switch systems with better hardware as time goes on, but the Switch brand will remain for 7-10 years and it will just be a family of hardware with broad software compatibility. It's not going to be like 5-6 years of Switch, then stop, then "Switch 2" starting at 0 again.

Switch will break that rule, just as it's broken several other hardware rules already. So in that context, 100 million is achievable. Also having a more tablet-like upgrade cycle IMO will mean that years 4-5-6-7 of the Switch cycle will not see the same decline you see in other game platforms, because the hardware will not become outdated as easily. You'll have a Switch that can run PS4/XB1 tier games in 3 years or so IMO (10nm Tegra Xavier chip).

Someone out there said 250 million. His name rhymes with Mon Ducas.

I'll go ahead and say 160M. Best selling console of all time, baybeh!

I'm telling ya all they have to do is release Pokemon for that motherfucker and it's OVER.

easily. Once support is all but pulled from the 3DS you'll see it reach a 100 million without issue.

Too edgy, you made this for attention, pls stop

Seems someone is trying to steal my prediction!Damn thief!

I had, back in November XD

I think the Switch won't have enough support in Europe to cross the 100 million mark. But 80 million seems doable.

Nah.

It depends on what the Switch gets from handheld developers but I doubt it reaches 100 Million.
