Switch 2 claimed to have a record breaking launch

The Nintendo Switch 2 had an impressive amount of stock for its launch weekend but ultimately, it did sell out in most places within the first 24 hours. Now, analysts are claiming record-breaking sales numbers for Nintendo's latest console. 

The Nintendo Switch 2 has apparently sold as many as 3 million units worldwide since the launch on June 5th, according to Nintendo Prime. That would beat out Sony's PS4 record, which sold one million units in its first 24 hours.

Nintendo forecasts over 15 million Switch 2 sales during the current fiscal year, ending in March 2026. If it has already sold 3 million, then that would put it on track to achieving that goal. However, Nintendo will need to be capable of constantly replenishing stocks around the globe.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
