The highly anticipated release of the Nintendo Switch 2 is just around the corner, with pre-order numbers already indicating strong demand.
Despite the hype, Nintendo is projecting sales of 15 million units by the end of the next fiscal year, a conservative estimate according to analysts.
The company is taking into account potential challenges such as tariffs and political issues that could impact sales.
While the Switch 2 is expected to perform well, Nintendo is being cautious in its projections to avoid underperforming expectations.
The Switch 2, priced at $449.99 in the U.S., offers improved features compared to its predecessor.
Nintendo sold 10.8 million units of the Switch in the previous year, slightly below its forecast and down 31% year-on-year, indicating a potential shift in focus towards the upcoming Switch 2 release.
