So where are people buying these stock from? Let's take the US, for example (because we know the Switch is not sold out everywhere). Are people waiting in line outside of Walmart or something?

If you've been following the amazon thread lately as an example, you'd see when it gets new stock shipments every once in a while, it shoots to the top of the charts, then sells out in minutes, and goes back to being sold out.

dont waste your time on Lawlight, Switch could sell 1 million units every week for 5 years straight and he would still find a way to downplay it.

I follow the Amazon thread. The Switch has only been in stock there once a couple of days ago. Which begs the question, again, where are people getting those Switches from?

Once again, the PS4. Mental. Yada yada, Grand Theft Auto 5. I think that's everything. Oh! Looking forward to those adjusted weekly numbers. I plan on taking some selfies with them beside my face.

We will see, Switch still has huge stock problems (its still constantly outsold in US and Japan and in some Europe countries), but hardle it will have those problems next year.

If it's constantly sold out, how did it sell 144k? It's just available in stores.

It's obvious, some shops or internet retailers from time to time (every couple of days or weeks) are getting some smaller supplies that are sold out in matter of hours. In Japan there still lines just to have chance to purchase Switch, and in US you still cant find Switch in stock, only units from scalpers, only units from scalpers that have price point at least $100 above official price point.  That's well known fact, but you still deny it.

Also fact is that Nintendo few days ago again apologies for Switch shortages and promised increased shipments for July and August.

Ps4 is absolutely insanity at this point, this thing is gonna wreck Ps2.

Selling this amount on non holidays, this thing is crazy, how in hell did Sony managed this sucess is beyond my compression but they did. 

Dont cary out too much, PS2 sold so much because is selling great for very long time, even when PS3 was out. But PS4 will best selling home console after PS2.

1m pr week, is 4m a month, 48m a year.... x 5 = 240m.

If the switch does 240m... aint no one going to downplay lol.
