Based on different time frame release and phased rollout of DS  against a global simultaneous launch for NS. 

Does FY13 corresponds to FY26 for NS1 or the one that just completed?

Thanks, XtremeBG. That's what I was curious to see. It seems like the Switch will be in a position similar to the DS's FY2013. If it actually is forecasted to sell 2.5M and do 2.35M, that would be awsome. It's probably not gonna be the situation though

If Switch's final fiscal years have drops such as those last few fiscal years of the DS, then Switch 1 is cooked. The first big drop is the one, from 15.70 to 10.80. The next one is now, from almost 11M to just 4M. If that doesn't change, then we will have fiscal year ending March 2027 of something like 1.5M

Always good to see these data well-arranged. Thanks. I was curious to see the forecast vs actual shipments because we're gonna have the Switch forecast to next year soon and I had never seen the comparison between DS's forecast vs actual shipments before

I went through some articles from 2012 and 2013, and saw so different picture, so different reality .. in the report was talking how DS was dying, how the Wii disappoints in it's latest years of sale, how the DS is selling more in US than EU and JP, and how 3DS and Wii U sales are bad, so so different picture than what is now with the Switch 1 and Switch 2. Not only the sales themselves but the portion of those in the different regions as well. So different times for Nintendo back then.

If you wander in gaming forums, you will see people mentioning that tomodachi life living the dream is depleted. FRANCE, UK, GERMANY
And it has become a meme in TikTok (meh).
Nintendo lowballed it, which is normal though.
Interest in new software fizzles out when the successor hardware has released.
For f@CK sake, why they post earning results 1 month and 1 week after the quarter ended?
