Bloomberg: analysts expecting Switch 2 to be biggest console launch in video game history


If you managed to pre-order a Nintendo Switch 2 ahead of its June 5th release, you’re in luck. Switch 2 pre-orders have been selling out just about everywhere around the world. So far, all signs seem to be pointing to Nintendo‘s new console being a sales success. However, some Bloomberg analysts think that the launch could be a lot more than you may be expecting.

The analysts that spoke to Bloomberg are predicting that “Nintendo will be able to produce between 6 million and 8 million consoles by the time the Switch 2 hits shelves on June 5. Sony’s PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 are tied for the best launch to date, with each selling 4.5 million units in their first two months on the market”. If this happens, the Switch 2 could end up being the biggest console launch in video gaming history.
