The Report from Nikkei claims that Nintendo wants to make sure it can produce enough units to meet demand. This is to steer clear of the supply issues that beset the 2017 launch of the first Switch. The shortage of supplies created a booming market for scalping. Nintendo wants to make sure it doesn’t happen again.
The Nintendo Switch 2 may miss Nintendo’s upcoming fiscal year based on this estimated timeline, which would undoubtedly upset fans waiting impatiently for an update. However, Nintendo appears content to take its time and execute a flawless launch instead of rushing a new product onto the market.
Six years after its release, the original Switch is still in high demand. Nintendo recently increased its hardware sales estimate for the current fiscal year to 15.5 million units. With 139 million units sold throughout its lifetime, it is currently among the most successful consoles ever, only surpassed by the PlayStation 2 and Nintendo’s own DS portable.
In 2023, there will be more than 122 million active Switch users, making it the largest user base ever. Therefore, Nintendo can afford to wait until the timing and supply chain logistics are ideal, even though an improved Switch is unavoidable at some point. The Switch 2 will have some very big shoes to fill when it arrives.
