Back before the Switch launched, Nintendo announced that they were increasing Switch console production to meet the growing pre-order demand. That production increase, of course, wasn’t enough, as the console is still sold out pretty much everywhere. <\/p>\n

And now Nintendo has increased production once again. Source tell the Financial Times, quite a reputable publication, that Nintendo has once again increased Switch production. <\/p>\n

Not only that, source say that Nintendo now expects to ship 18 million Switch consoles during this fiscal year, which ends on March 31, 2018. <\/p>\n

Nintendo themselves are staying conservative: the company officially expects to sell “just” 10 million Switch consoles this fiscal year, and company President Tatsumi Kimishima said that even that might be hard to do<\/a>. <\/p>\n

An increase in production seems quite plausible and even the obvious thing to do, considering that the consumer demand for the Switch is clearly there. <\/p>\n
