The switch will not sell 20 mill next year!

No, the Nintendo Switch is not going to sell 20 million units in the next fiscal year, despite the hopes of Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima. Yes, the platform has seen incredible success, selling large quantities across the world, particularly in Japan. The platform has far eclipsed my initial expectation of 6-8 million units in the first year. In fact, to date, the platform has sold over 10 million units in less than nine months. That figure is really impressive; impressive enough for Nintendo to raise its forecast to 17 million units sold by April.

What do you think guys, is this click bait?

More at the jump.

How the fuck is this click bait if it's just an article reporting what Kimishima said

 

[Noppie]

Your title is indeed clickbait.

 

[dezzyeight]

As soon as Nintendo can meet demand the sales will increase.

 

[NSESN]

The original title isn't clickbait, yours is.

 

[Etrian Darkness]

This is the most click bait and also features a title saying otherwise in the OP. You drunk?

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I don't understand why people on forum need clickbaits? You ain't getting any money.

 

[Ulairi]

It's completely realistic for Nintendo to sell that many consoles next year.

 

[DNAbro]

That is some awful analysis that is happening in that article.

 

[Herb Alpert]

I guess it's hard to tell when we still know jack shit about 2018 line up.

Click to shrink...

The article is clickbait.
Kimishima said he expects to sell 20 million. The article says that probably won't happen.

Regardless of whether or not it does it's good to see the Switch has people shook.

 

[waffleboy]

The title is "The Switch could sell 20 million units next year, but don't count on it".
The first sentence is "No, the Nintendo Switch is not going to sell 20 million units in the next fiscal year, despite the hopes of Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima"

Uhhhhhh what

 

[Jaded Alyx]

NVM i'm confused

 

[RPGam3r]

I like how you back up your "No" by supporting the likelihood it will surpass that number.

Based on your summary: debate is "clickbait"?

So are you the author of the article or are you just sharing a click bait article?

I still don't get exactly why it's clickbait, it's an opinion piece.
It's not like the article said "Kimishima lied about the 20 millions and here's my insane theory as to why".

 

[Toriko]

I dont get it. Why is 20 million unreachable. Didnt PS4 just have a 20 million + year. Why is the thought of Switch doing that number so unrealistic?

 

[Lord Brady]

PLEASE CLICK MY THREAD: the thread

As for selling 20 million, all depends on whether or not Animal Crossing and Pokemon make it out. If they do, it'll happen easily.

 

[IlGialloMondadori]

This is the most clickbait thread title I've ever seen on Resetera.

 

[GrrImAFridge]

This doesn't need its own thread.
