Hate to say it but Nintendo has screwed up with supply again.

Japan should be getting a steady 40k/week, the Switch needs at least that base line there, being in the 20s is not good and even the 30s is underwhelming, you want a baseline in 40s at least. 

It should not be that big of a problem to get

80k for North America
60k for Europe
40k for Japan

Weekly. 22-29k is bullshit especially since units are easier to get to Japan. 

Well there could be more behind the scenes that doesnt meet the eye. It all just points to nintendo being overly conservative since what happen with wiiu. 

 

If it wasnt such a problem they be doing just that. You cant just flip the SWITCH and production will automatically double. Nintendo probably gave out there stock in advance and it finally caught up

No one's asking for double the production. 40k/week in Japan is not terribly hard to make nor does it require double the production. 

At least produce 85% of the 3DS volume for its first year. This isn't good enough, if their "plan" is to stay in the 20ks in Japan until ARMS or Splatoon 2 launch, it's a dumb plan. 

Asking for 750k/month isn't asking for a lot, they should be able to make 750k units/month.
