Nintendo Ramps Up Switch 2 Production, Expecting To Smash Early Sales Estimates

The Switch 2 has consistently shattered expectations in the four months since its release, breaking sales records and bolstering overall industry figures while other hardware manufacturers have struggled. Nintendo expects the Switch 2’s momentum to continue, and has ramped up production of the console.

Nintendo has asked its suppliers to produce 25 million Switch 2 units by March next year, Bloomberg reports citing anonymous sources close to the company.

The new production plan suggests Nintendo may sell as many as 20 million units this fiscal year.
