Circana, the official sales tracker for video games in the United States, has revealed that Nintendo Switch 2 unit sales are trending 77% ahead of the time-aligned sales of the original Nintendo Switch, which is really great news. However, it should also be noted that the original Nintendo Switch was hardware constrained in the United States at launch, whereas it has been easier for customers to pick up a Nintendo Switch 2.

Switch 2 has definitely lose momentum, the newer games announcements had a so so reception and the prices don’t help move units. if they are banking this holiday their sales on Hyrule Warriors and Metroid Prime 4… oh boy, they will miss a huge opportunity to secure this first year install base.
All data is literally pointing to the opposite.
I don’t know, look vgchartz… Monthly decreasing since june ( losing between july and august 30%) both in Europe and japan, US numbers are not posted yet.
Not true.
Some people forget that normies buy games once a year and not day one. Nintendo will succeed over the holidays.
But you previously made it seem PS5 was better? I swear you guys just simp for politics it seems. Even tards claiming Nintendo is niche compared to PS5 complete lie for that dying console, PS6 will not last long 5 years most I think before Sony pulls the plug. Nintendo Switch 2 will surpass PS5 easy in sales look Switch 2 has 4 games coming out in its first year while PS5 had 1 and honestly none of that consoles exclusives are good just boring depressing gray slop and politics.
They are lying and saying it was easy get Nintendo Switch 2 not true because I waited a well checking asking everyone every store i know finally September time this year i finally paid and got a regular Nintendo switch 2 no mario kart cause I don’t care
You guys glaze Sony more than Nintendo all because politics. Nintendo meanwhile Switch 2 sales outperform the PS4 in its first few months for the US you know a actual major market not the UK or your fake numbers for Yotei sales.
