The Japanese game console company announced its annual figures on Tuesday morning and reports that Nintendo expects to sell significantly fewer Switch consoles this year than last year.
Nintendo was able to produce fewer game consoles last year due to the persistent chip shortage. That is why the expectation has already been adjusted from 24 million to 23 million copies. This goal was narrowly achieved with 23.06 million copies. Nintendo expects to sell 21 million Switch consoles this year.
