    Switch 2 will be successful as the Wii U

    Sorry I stand corrected by the big N themselves this week as they did a Sony and found a couple of million more units down the back of the sofa.... "Nintendo Switch 2 has reached 19.86 million million units sold." Somehow someone somewhere on the web will try and "if and but" that (its a...

    Switch 2 will be successful as the Wii U

    Totally agree. Good news is no news for most news sites / forums / reddit Of course going back to the original thread title - "As of early 2026, the Nintendo Switch 2 has drastically outperformed the Wii U, surpassing its entire 13.56 million lifetime sales in just seven months. While the Wii...

    And previously in this thread "numbers dont always tell the total story early on." - Numbers TELL the whole story - everything else is just opinion.

    Switch 2 will be successful as the Wii U

    Its a done deal here guys - you can spin it however you like but total year on year sales are the proof and saying its not selling as well as it it was in papa new guinea proves zilch.... I will be back in a year and we will see how much better again it will be doing by then with the rivals...

    Switch 2 will be successful as the Wii U

    Strange then that it's currently outperforming the original switch sales in the US.... I dont know any of the 9 people like me who had a day 1 switch who now dont have a switch 2....and I loved DK Bonanza and the upgrades for both Zeldas as well as the new Resi..... I think really it couldnt...

    Switch 2 will be successful as the Wii U

    So I came back a year later and this just reminds me of that classic "the wisdom of crowds" - how wrong every one was in regards to the S2 and its unbelievable sales even in the face of rising hardware prices (Hello Sony) and barring N killing Trump (or Sony finding another 5 million sales of...

    The future of Switch 2? Success or failure?

    10 years when the Switch 2 has sold 100 million plus....and Sony finds another 10 million DVD players sorry PS2's down the back of the sofa to stop the Switch being the biggest selling console in history.

    The future of Switch 2? Success or failure?

    The original poster put it up in August talking about its future which is obviously now and beyond and currently N themselves have upped their forecast by an extra 4 million sales by the end of this fiscal year - in terms of sales success whether you like it or not thats extraordinary...

    The future of Switch 2? Success or failure?

    Thats an absolutely fair point but we are talking about a luxury handheld console - no-one forced you to buy one and it was abundantly known that it would take a while for S2 titles to arrive en masse. For me DKB and both zeldas at 60 fps were worth the price of entry alone and of course a...

    The future of Switch 2? Success or failure?

    Yep so that shouty lot need to eat their words ! Such a big disconnect between the online "it'll never sell" and the actual reality.....I dont N themselves could have wished for a better year - Plus when will Sony find a new more sold PS2s down the back of the sofa :) Now just make the...

    Those who bought a Switch 2 at launch, do you still have it?

    Yeah had mine day 1 but kept my original pro controller as not bothered by lifting my switch up and down in the dock to start it up - so far love it - better versions of my all time fave games - both zeldas and DK Bonanaz has been the best mario platformer (they SO nailed the landing for the end...

    The future of Switch 2? Success or failure?

    Its always good to see another viewpoint and as a gamer from the original arcade Space Invaders / Pac-Man to now (I remember people smoking in grimy cafes and putting coins on the cabinet to play next) its interesting to see where this thing is going....Id like to see MS pull it back and it not...

    The future of Switch 2? Success or failure?

    Bit of a different forecast when you have already sold over 6 million by August and xmas is approaching tbh - plus you aren't a top class gaming company with shareholders to keep happy so actual "real" forecasts matter....this "it wont sell" snark is so odd - originally it was it wont sell any...

    The future of Switch 2? Success or failure?

    Let me know when the sales failure is going to kick in - https://www.techinasia.com/news/nintendo-targets-25-million-switch-2-units-by-march-2026 Although from the wording of this thread header - there is the technical and gaming side success or failure to consider not just the sales which...
