As for Quickrick, he's actually one alt of a serial troll who has been making accounts here to shit on Nintendo since at least 2013; zeldaring and ninjablade are two of his other alts, he's made like 10 in total over the years.

Lots of folks in this one claiming it will flop hard:

Can we remake this thread but we all make predictions and look back on them in time to see if they become Hilariously wrong or not. Many will laugh but I predict the Switch 2 to be a Wii U sort of deal, not as bad, Nintendo will make their money and they still have 150+ million switches to sell games on. They aren't loosing much in this as they can still sell Switch 1s cause the Switch 2 is simply a PRO console for all intents, they have designed it so they can't fail even if it fails despite the "2" in the name. I predict less than 40 million LT, I wanna say 30 million but I'll be cut it down the middle at go 35 million. It'll sell right out the gate like the Wii U and get over 20 million fairly fast but given all the conditions It'll slow and then It'll slow to a crawl. Parent will not buy this thing, Kids will still be on Switch 1. We will not see hardware price reduction in the lifetime of this system or at least the vast majority of it, we'll be lucky if the price does not go up and it just might. That said, Switches will still sell.

Legit, you’re misunderstanding. The point of this thread wasn’t to create hilariously wrong predictions, it was to give examples of hilariously wrong predictions from the past. /s (If XBSXS can sell 30mil, then NSW2 will at least hit 60mil in the catastrophically worst case scenario. Nintendo has software, whereas the others have been lacking. Nintendo has the strongest word-of-mouth of the three.)

Not looking likely now. 😕 I didn't wanna be wrong. 

What’s not looking likely now? My claim that NS2 will hit 60mil is the absolute worst case? This system is already looking at a 17-21mil FY’26, a new record by a country mile. Maybe the chip shortage could create some complications, but 60mil would still basically be the floor.
