Switch sold 42.13m untis of software in first 6 months of this year, in Holiday quarter alone will probably sell around 50m, Switch SW will probably be around 110m at end of FY year.
Who made thread before that there is no way that Switch will sell 100m software units this FY? :)

It seems that Switch did not lose momentum, it's up compared to last year. ;) I don't think you realise what impossible means, it harder but not impossible.
Switch last year in October-December period sold 7.24m with Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade 2, this year in same time period have Super Mario Party, Pokemon Lets Go and Smash Bros Ultimate, only that is far stronger lineup compared to last year, plus Switch this year has plenty available bundles that didn't had last year. So with that all on mind, Switch could easily this year in same time period sell around 10m. Fact that Nintendo didnt changed 20m forecaste means they counting most for Holiday sales and Pokemon Lets Go and Smash Bros Ultimate. Even if Switch dont hit 20m, it will be very close to that number in any case, like 17-18m in worst case. |
nintendo never downgrades there forecast, well see what happens they will ne lucky to match last year shipments imo.

I recall Michael Patcher saying the Switch is on track to sell 8 millions this year, that's even worse

They've already surpassed last year shippments for Q1 and Q2, and there is no reason they won't beat the 7 millions of Q3 of last year with the Fortnite, Smash and Pokémon bundles, and with Mario Party.
Very good numbers. There goes the GC goalpost, on to the N64 goalpost. Seems like the cliff is not in sight yet. heh, whaddya know.
Stronger numbers than expected.
Have they adjusted the forecast or does it remain at 20m?

Still at 20 millions

I definitely doubted 100m software units when I first saw it, but that was before I realized that Nintendo was making physical releases of a lot of the high selling digital games (Rocket League, Minecraft, Overcooked, etc). Knowing that they are counting all digital sales of those then it was an easy goal to hit.
Good quarter for Nintendo.

Well... They pretty much need to match the Wii's peak holiday shipments (11.3m) then.

shipments are about even from last year, and last yeat they were low on stock, so they shipped everything they could, unlike this year where they probably have a good amount in store shelves. last year was its also its first holiday with pent up demand and a amazing line up for any Nintendo fan.
Nintendo fans act like pokemon and smash are the second coming but guess what those games were om 3ds and didnt propel sales into the heavens like some people expect on switch.
