Anyways… on the topic of not having much official data on Switch 2’s holiday performance, I see no point in continuing this discussion. Let’s pick things up in February once Nintendo (yet again) reaffirms that Switch 2 hasn’t hit this fabled “The Cliff 2: Electric Boogaloo.”

Don’t even need to wait a year, just look at the quarterly results in early February 2026. Switch 2 will almost certainly be at 16.5-20mil shipped by that point. Also, IDK why you’re acting like your prediction has already come true… why are you saying these things? JP and EU sales data suggest Switch 2 is on pace to dramatically outperform Switch 1 during its first holiday quarter (Q3FY18), and that system moved nearly 8mil in its first holiday. Only territory where Switch 2 has lagged a little would be the US specifically during the month of November. |
If S2 was gonna sell to casuals it would have beaten PS5. Anyway, this is the Hilariously wrong predictions thread, I wanna be wrong. You'll most likely be right but it doesn't mean there is gonna be a big contraction and the November sales are a big sign of that. I don't think it'll contract as much as Wii U but it's not pulling a 3ds.

The Cliff will come ;) it just gonna be a slippery slope type deal.
If I end up like that other guy, let the meme be that I predicted the Switch 2 will slide down a 45 degree angle into ruin. Infact let it be said that all gaming hardware is gonna slide down a slope in the near future. Sony can't keep eating cost forever or go back in time and place hardware in warehouses omve it's sold.

:) Not a chance. 40 at best. Again, I'll have to make a prediction (a correct one), it'll slow even more than it slowed for the holiday season. Let's talk again in a year and see those numbers contract steadily. 😉 Again, that base 10 million was a guarantee. The casuals aren't gonna follow the hard-core. |
Get your mind out of 2008 with bullshit like this. If anyone is "hard core" it's not you. You are as casual as it gets playing the most mainstream stuff. "hard core" would be people who have PCB collections. Entire expensive setups for flight sims. People who can play Ikaruga 2 player at the same time. Ftr none of those things are me either.

I never said I was hard-core. I said the hard-core Nintendo base are the ones slurrping up the Switch, that number of users has grown since Wii U but it'll top out. Many core will follow, that's why I'm saying 40 million and a slow road there, not a harsh cut off like Wii U, they lost the casuals and the kids but like I said, all consoles are gonna decline cause of hardware costs in the near to mid term. Hard-core in this context does not mean hard-core gaming but if beating Sekiro in 4 hours on a fresh save and booting it for perfect boss runs is not hard-core idk what is. Don't gate keep. There are hard-core out there but can't game cause of circumstance. I'll throw the same back at you and say, take your head out of 2008 with that shit. So grumpy and it only January 2nd.
