The Nintendo Switch gaming system has been a huge success. However, the tech company is not confident of the sale of its gaming console this Holiday Season.
President of Nintendo America, Reggie Fils-Aime, stated that the company is aiming to sell 10 million Nintendo Switch units before the fiscal year will end. Nonetheless, Fils-Aime did not eliminate the chance of stock shortages. In spite of that, Fils-Aime claimed that the company is now focused on generating enough Nintendo Switch for the upcoming holiday season, according to GameSpot.
One of the problems that are bothering the production of the console is the shortage in the device’s components.
Several parts that Nintendo is using for the Switch console is also being utilized by Apple for its latest iPhone.

Rockstar Games’ neo-noir detective action-adventure video game, “L.A. Noire,” is coming to Nintendo’s latest console, according to US Gamer. Nintendo Switch owners will acquire the video game on November 14. The console will feature the original game, downloadable content (DLC), as well as new control schemes.
The enhancements of Nintendo Switch include gesture-based controls, contextual touch screen controls, Joy-Con mode with gyroscopic, HD rumble as well as over the shoulder camera angle. Aside from Nintendo’s console, the “La Noire” video game will also roll out to Sony’s PlayStation 4 and Microsoft’s Xbox One.
