Nintendo Switch will sell at least 20 million units in 2022, lower but consistent sales forecast
– Reviews News
A Japanese newspaper, The Nikkei, reported that sales forecasts for Nintendo Switch will be approximately 20 million units for the current fiscal year (which started April 1 and will run through March 31, 2023).
The gap with last year's sales forecast, which called for three million more, is dictated by a shortage of components that continues to limit supply in the face of persistently high demand. The results of the past exercise over a month will be shared on May 10.
The Nikkei says the still high demand for the device cannot be fully met as Nintendo still expects component shortages to restrict supply.
Nintendo will release its full annual revenue for the last fiscal year (always includes a fiscal year for the next one) on May 10.

However, 20 million units to be sold in one year is not little, and it is true that there is always a demand for the Switch. At this stage, we can expect that, in parallel, the video game offer on Nintendo's hybrid will remain consistent: the postponement of the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild this could represent an extension of the Switch's lifecycle, so a still-high sales forecast is entirely achievable.
