What's up with that? It's a good thing , it's just a bit strange to see so many people spontainiously return around the same time.

As for the op: I'm thinking no. Bit too optimistic.

There was a lot of Nintendo fans for the Wii era. They fled when the Wii U era came along, and now that Nintendo is successful again they are returning.

They fled eh? Lol. Well, those were dark times I suppose.

This is a really absurd prediction. It'll give the fanboys too much hope. *sigh* Oh well

It's impossible to predict. There are way too many variables at play here. Again, impossible to predict.

I'm curious to see how many they shipped during this quarter, now that the Switch is noy supply constrained anymore other than Japan.

All I love is the fact Switch is actually getting these kind of predictions months after release. After a year for the Wii U even the most best case scenarios were around 30 million lifetime.

As for 130 million units being possible ...lets wait until stock constraints are over.

Wow, so many older users coming back! Loving the concept.

I'll be more conservative and say that Switch will pass 100 million by the end of 2022.

Never said it was bad thing.

Never implied you did.

I could actually see this happening if Nintendo can get the thing officially sold in china, with its emerging middle class market.

Maybe. Nintendo will need expert skill and some luck to pull that one off. I hope they can, but only time wil tell.

Are you not counting john lucas' 250m prediction?

...maybe I should add in "with a few unrealistic expections"...
