One research company has lowered its sales forecast for the Switch 2, due in part to “pricing” concerns surrounding the impact of tariffs. DFC Intelligence is downgraded its global Switch 2 sales forecast for 2025 from 17 million to 15 million units. Even at 15 million in 2025, the Switch 2 would be the “fastest-selling console system ever,” DFC said.
The original Switch, along with the Wii and the PS4, took a year or more to reach 15 million in sales. DFC is predicting the Switch 2 will reach that mark from the June 5 launch to the end of 2025, or about 7 months.
DFC said its downgraded forecast is tied to “supply and pricing.”
