So I know there has been a lot of talk about the Switch being very understocked for the month of March but then someone pointed out to me and I looked it up to be sure:

The PS4 sold just under 2.5 million units in its first 4 weeks. The Xbone just over 2.2 million.

And they launched in November, one of the top two most active retail months.

So with that in mind, is 2 million for the Switch's first 4 weeks not plenty high? Especially given it launches in March, a far less active month at retail? And wouldn't easily selling out of that first big wave be an accomplishment worthy of note???

 

Edit: ok forgot Japan launched months later, when you align them you get somewhere around 2.9 mil.  But again, Switch is launching in March, so I think 2 million with the possibility of more seems adequate.
