Nikkei: Furukawa affirms that Nintendo will prepare enough Switch 2 to meet demand, in...
Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa said on February 4, “We will prepare enough products to meet demand” for the new Nintendo Switch 2 (Nintendo Switch Two) game console to be released in 2025.
The current Switch did not meet demand in terms of shipments at the time of its launch and was noticeably resold, leading to user dissatisfaction.
For Switch 2, the company aims to secure sufficient inventory prior to launch to make a “head start,” which was not possible with the current model.

The article is paywalled but Furukawa states again that they are aware of scalping and implementing measures to fight it.

We also know that mass production of the console is underway, as @Welfare put it in his article.


More concretely, how much do you think Nintendo will need to meet launch demand? Is it realistic in terms of supply and historical examples?
