So will this shit actually outsell the PS2 or not?
If it does it's only because they break
>>732240648you lost and got raped eric
No, thirdies ensured the PS2's lifetime supremacy.
it already has
>>732240648Already did
>>732240648already did like 3 times(?) but sony keeps pulling new numbers out of its neo-vagina lol
With a price cut, maybe. But if Sony releases a PS2 Mini and counts those as PS2 sales, then no.
>willIt already did. The 155 million number was already questionable, and then sony blatantly faked another 5 million on top of that.
>>732240741>>732240747>>732240958>>732241014
>>732241056Sure.
>snoygger has no response other than wojakstypical
>>732240648WWIII will interrupt the sales.
>>732241143will never happenwarfare has changed, it's almost entirely done with drones and bombings at this point
>>732240648It already did like 3 times
>>732240648Already has
>>732240648It already outsold PS2 in the US and Japan. Literally the only thing making PS2 competitive in this race is 3rd world sales and faked numbers.
>tendie has no response other than copetypical
>wojack poster is seething

>>732241657pretty much, yeah
>>732240648In May 2024, their forecast for FY25 was 13.5M. In November they corrected it to 12.5M, and in February 2025 to 11M. It turned out to be 10.8M.In May 2025, their forecast for FY26 was 4.5M, and in November they corrected it to 4M.They are sticking with it now, so they are more confident.That means from Jan 1 until March 31 (last year it was 1.2M), plus 4M until March 2027 (FY26) puts them over 160M.>Yes.
>>732241657So the U.S nukes everything and everywhere else fights more local battles until everyone except, Americans, Mexicans and Africans are left?
>>732240648sony will find another 20 million ps2s

Will it pass that number you think?
>>732242169I think once they are close to 160, they will seriously consider a price drop and it will get to 161M fairly quickly.
>>732242169>produced
>>732242334It's kinda shocking they haven't price dropped alreadyyou'd think with Switch 2 out, and the last of the "dual switch 2 / switch 1 release" games out, that they'd just pricedrop to $199 to sell off remaining stockmaybe they're planning on keeping Switch 1 around to be a budget model or something
>>732240648No, it seems like switch 1 sales have frozen while switch 2 keeps going. Nintendo can't afford to continue manufacturing two completely different consoles in this environment.
>>732240648Probably as long as they continue to track it, you know until Sony "finds" 5 million extra PS2 receipts stuffed in a drawer somewhere
>>732242483>Nintendo can't afford to continue manufacturing two completely different consoles....anon, they've spent the majority of their life manufacturing consoles and handhelds at the same timemanufacturing two very similar devices at the same time is no problem at all
>>732242391I cannot seriously predict what exactly they're going to do, but I think it's fairly reasonable to say that they will drop the price before discontinuing the system. But I don't think they would until 2027 at the earliest.
>>732240648Nah. PS2 was around the time everyone was living in a bubble economy so a household would buy multiple during its lifetime.
>>732242713You're acting like tendies don't own multiple Switch consoles.
>>732242583>>....anon, they've spent the majority of their life manufacturing consoles and handhelds at the same time....anon they didn't spend the majority of their life manufacturing consoles during a worldwide electronics shortage.
>>732242713It was also a cheap DVD player

>>732242807There is no shortage of components from 2013 which is what Sw1 uses.
>>732242169>>732242829Oh yeah >>732241784 anon read it wrong.They sold 11M in 2024, and in the last 10 months it sold about 4M. So it will be significantly less for the next year. They have to price drop this year.
>>732240648It already has, you stupid fucking chud
>>732242334>Price drop>After they already increased the price once and keep talking about doing it againThe switch will most likely outsell the ps2 but thinking it will ever drop in price is delusional.
>>732242169This is wrong. The 4m figure was for march 2025- march 2026. It will be at 156m having sold 4m from its previous march 2025 number of 152m. It will likely halve into 2027 selling maybe 2m where it might be discontinued
>>732242391That is the craziest part of all. The PS2 sold 150+ million consoles with most of its later sales being in South America where it was sold for pennies. The Switch 1 not only hasn't received a single official price drop in its entire lifespan, but even suffered a $50 increase because of tariffs, and it's still selling like no one's business. Forget about surpassing the PS2's made up numbers, the PS2 wishes it was as fucking profitable as the Switch.
>>732244682Do you really think that at the 10th anniversary of the Switch at 158M, they will just discontinue it? Seriously?
>>732244540I don't think it'll happen either but only because the Switch 2 is now firmly planted in the ground and will take over as frontrunner going forward. Keep in mind that price hike was only for Switch 1 and only due to the tariffs/memory horseshit that's still continuing, Nintendo hasn't raised the prices for any Switch 2 consoles after the initial MSRP was revealed.
>>732244835I didn’t say that but they said they wanted to support it for 10 years. It will be discontinued not long after 2027 if any later
>>732244938Nintendo hasn't discontinued their dedicated handhelds that close after the next one, like they have with home consoles. I think marking the 10th anniversary they will still give Switch 1 a final push into 2028.
>>732240648I'm sure Sony will conveniently find another two million sales in Bumfuckistan.
>>732245584It's funny because Switch 1 feels like it was dropped even harder than the wii, 3ds and n64 were. Just fucking vanished.
I honestly don't know. Depends on if Switch 2 just gobbles up the market. Switch did a bit better last year than i thought. not much point in buying it with a price increase. and it's plausible it may get increased again.
>>732245783Yeah that's why we didn't get Pokemon, Mario Galaxy 2, Prime 4, Tomodachi Life, and Rhythm Heaven
>>732240648It will when Sony stops pulling imaginary new sales from their ass
>>732246057It's all they have. Their only "legacy".
>>732246000The sales dropped quick. The reason why they didnt discontinue any of their previous consoles this quick after successor, is because none of them were runaway successes like the S2.
>>732240648Possibly. If Nintendo really cared about that it could easily drop the price of the Lite to $150 and pack in a 1st party game. Or new color variants with the classic Pokémon games included.
