Maybe I misunderstood your post:
Yeah, I should have clarified.
I'm not suggesting the Switch 2 will be a total flop like the Wii U. I'm pointing out that analysts can be very wrong.
Any predictions on sales should be approached with caution. That article I posted predicted the Wii U would sell over 50 million in 4 years.
Nintendo have almost done everything right for it to be a smash hit, except the software prices. That could be difficult in this economic climate.Yeah Maybe not as much as the switch that thing was a monster, I think it will still do gang busters.
Maybe the only thing I can see going badly is the amount of first party software. Nintendo can't rely on so many re-releases of past gen titles this time around I think. Then again..........................
If the casual gamers turn up like they did with the Switch then it'll be another huge seller. That's who Nintendo need to sell to as that's the customer base who made the Wii, DS and Switch huge success stories.
Not really comparing apples with apples here. The Switch brand is very strong. Just look at the first party software sales.
The Wii brand was also very strong.
I was also pointing out that predicting console sales isn't always correct. Saying the Switch 2 will blast through 20 million sales in year one isn't a guarantee.
Bold of you to predict it'll sell more than 13 million but less than the most ever.
I know. Amazingly I'm a analyst in my day job. Lol.
I should have added more context to that. My prediction is around 70 million. Not a flop, but not close to Switch 1 sales.
