437k sold in one day in one country (+600k counting WiiU version)

"surprisingly low numbers" 

lol

I expected more, I expected the Switch to sell around 500-600k close to the XOne launch which would have brought Zelda's numbers close or even surpass the 500k mark and I wasn't only referring to zelda but also Horizon which I thought would easily hit 500k fw.

And I never quite understood the principle of "but it only had 2 days of sales", say if it launched on a monday would you seriously expect it to sell another 437k? Like one would assume that 80% of fw sales would come from the first day of release.

Assuming 80% of fw sales comes from the first day that would mean BoTW could be around 520k FW which would put Switch exactly on the 500-600 range you talk about, so where are the "surprisingly low numbers"?  And that's comparing a console relased in March (Switch) with a console released in holidays season (XBO) so...
