Nintendo is expecting big things from the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, with predicted sales of over 15 million units during its initial launch period. If achieved, this would make it the fastest-selling console in history. The original Nintendo Switch sold 10.8 million units during its launch period, setting a high bar for its successor.
The new console’s success could be impacted by US trade policies and potential tax increases. Despite this, analysts believe the Nintendo Switch 2 has the potential to break records.
Pre-order Caution
With pre-orders already underway, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa has warned customers to be aware of potential stock shortages.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to launch on June 5, 2025. Its release is highly anticipated, and fans are eager to get their hands on the new console.
