I swear Nintendo holding off switch 2 to try and surpass the ps2 lifetime sales
I see certain people avoiding the sales articles like the plague....lol
Bonkers to me how close the Switch is to the PS5 this far into its lifecycle.
If they sell at least a million Switches a month until March 2025 (14 months including this January), it's right behind the DS/PS2 mark. Factor in Holiday 2024 sales, which for 2023 added 4.5-5M units, and it could hit No. 1 by the Switch 2's release in just at or under 8 years (DS was on the market officially for 8 years; PS2 13 years). All of this without a single official price drop is wild.
Congratulations again, PS5. You almost got all the regions and areas, but switch manage to top Asian regions because of Japan.
