Nintendo lowered its full year sales and profit forecast earlier today, which has lead Nintendo CEO Tatsumi Kimishima to expect two million units of the Nintendo Switch will be shipped by the end of this fiscal year, or by March 31, 2017.

Wall Street Journal’s Takashi Mochizuki reports the information comes straight from Nintendo during its financial results briefing, and certainly paints a picture of a more cautious company this time around, and with good reason.

When the Wii U launched, Nintendo shipped 3.06 million units while it expected to sell 4 million units by the end of March 2013. Considering how poorly the Wii U sold for Nintendo, we can’t blame it for being more caution with the production of its Nintendo Switch, especially since there’s still much we don’t know about the product after its brief introduction earlier this month. Hopefully it’ll be the mobile pioneer we know it could be or else Nintendo could once again have a flop on its hands.
