Nintendo Switch 2 Sales Lag Amid Economic Challenges and Lack of Major Western Titles

Nintendo Switch 2's holiday sales in 2026 fell short of the original Switch's 2017 performance, attributed to economic factors and the lack of a major Western game, despite the release of Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. While sales are down compared to the first year, overall lifetime sales in Japan remain strong, and Nintendo has several upcoming titles planned to boost momentum. The company is expected to introduce a major new franchise entry in 2026 to sustain interest.

Broadcom's AI Boosts Q3 Revenue Above Estimates.

Broadcom predicts that sales tied to artificial intelligence will double this year, with AI-related chip sales potentially being more than 25% of the company's total soon. However, the chipmaker is contending with a broader slowdown in sales, with total revenue expected to rise less than 5% this quarter.

Luxury Beauty Brands Cater to High-End Consumers with Premium Products

Companies are targeting wealthier shoppers by adding more premium items like designer body creams and services, even as inflation and a volatile economic environment persist.

However, this could leave fewer options for consumers with less money to spare. The gap between the haves and have nots has only gotten wider during the pandemic, with households with annual income of more than $156,000 accounting for around 38.3% of all retail spending last year, up from 37.5% in 2021.
