Nintendo Switch 2 production gearing up for 10 million units in its first year, says rumor

It’s looking ever more likely that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be released later this year, with one claiming Nintendo may unveil the console as soon as March. Regardless of when the console actually releases, it sounds like Nintendo has big plans to try and keep up with demand — by manufacturing at least 10 million Switch 2 consoles.

As Bloomberg reporter Takashi Mochizuki reported on Twitter/X, display shipment data suggests Nintendo is set to make over 10 million Switch 2 consoles in the next fiscal year — which begins in April. Mochizuki notes that this should make the Switch 2 a lot easier to get hold of when it does release. Especially compared to the PS5 and Xbox Series X.
