Nintendo is throwing some cold water on Switch 2 sales estimates even though launch demand seems to be off the charts.

Nintendo expects to ship 15 million Switch 2 consoles in a 10-month period, and if achieved, the Switch 2 would be the fastest-selling system of all time.

Nintendo Co. projected weaker-than-expected initial sales of the Switch 2, a reflection of how uncertainty around US tariffs is weighing even on a company fielding record-setting demand.
