Damn. Another hold at 180k. Very impressive. I don't think it'll match Dec 2018 numbers cuz of Smash last year, but I think it will hold a 1 million YoY lead, bringing in a bit over 4.5 million for the year (which is exactly what I predicted at the start of the year, go me!). I guess it's possible lots of 3DS (handheld focused) owners who don't have a Switch yet get the Lite for Christmas and sales match last year, but that just seems a bit tough with no big release this month.

All I know is the first 10 months of next year (before new consoles eat up some sales) are gonna be insane for Switch's piece of the hardware pie in Japan with PS4 dying hard and Switch only getting stronger.
