Nintendo President: Switch Lite isn’t cannibalizing the Switch venturebeat.com

Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa said in a briefing for analysts that the Nintendo Switch Lite isn’t cannibalizing sales of its older sibling Nintendo Switch.
“Looking at the state of this initial response, I would say Nintendo Switch Lite generating its own demand, without negatively impacting sales trends for Nintendo Switch,” Furukawa said.
“In fact, sales of Nintendo Switch (shown in gray) grew noticeably in the week following the launch of Nintendo Switch Lite.
“Among these consumers buying Nintendo Switch Lite as a second system, some are doing so to supplement a single Nintendo Switch console shared among the family, while others are opting to buy Nintendo Switch Lite as a compact, lightweight system to take on the go,” Furukawa said.
“We think this will make the handheld Nintendo Switch Lite a familiar and enticing proposal to Pokémon fans,” Furukawa said.
