the only numbers we will get is from Japan next week. Besides that, we will be waiting for shipment numbers, which we should get next month or early May perhaps. That is unless they have numbers to brag about, which I don't think seems likely.

as for the excitement, it was to be expected really. the only game worth buying the system for is a long known about cross gen game, and the excitement just surrounds that game rather than the overall system itself. Compared to say PS4, where people were hyped for the system launch itself, and the fact Knack was shit and Killzone completely average didn't matter.

Looking at the launch lineup and features, it seems possible that Nintendo won't be too worried, as I think they may have wanted to just get the console out early in the year and let everything just build towards the holidays. I think they have paced big releases this year out well and the system should do decently until the holidays, when I think Nintendo really will start pushing it
