Switch 2 Set to Crush 16M Sales in 2025
DFC Intelligence thinks Nintendo Switch 2 will sell 16 million units through 2025. They raised their earlier prediction after seeing Nintendo's plans to make 15 million machines. The first Switch beat company hopes with 15 million sales despite an early guess of 10 million. Nintendo might sell as many as 20 million if it could make enough devices. The delay of Grand Theft Auto VI until 2026 makes the Switch 2 launch even more important for game makers. Console game sales in North America may drop 2 percent next year.

When all countries combine, game console sales should grow 3...

Kojima thought this split reaction showed he had made something unique. The sequel earns more praise from test players across the board. Sony feels happy about these positive responses to the PlayStation 5 game. Kojima worries that widespread approval might mean the game lacks fresh ideas. He cares less about selling millions of copies than creating new experiences nobody has tried before. The designer still...
