Analyst firm pegs Switch for 40 million units sold by 2020

GN Version 5.0

The following analysis comes from DFC Intelligence

- expect Nintendo to sell 40 million units of Switch by 2020
- initial hardware allocations and a slim launch lineup will limit the system in the beginning
- "demand is expected to be strong and the major issue will be whether the system can attract a broad audience starting in the holiday sales season of 2017"
- "Switch is a compelling piece of hardware that could potentially reach a much larger addressable market"
- "given the limited software and Nintendo's poor recent track record of introducing new products we have tempered our forecasts to be conservative."

Thanks to Dakhil for the heads up!
