Hmm, that prediction is more difficult, because Nintendo said that in July and August the production is finally increased: http://www.vgchartz.com/article/268531/nintendo-to-increase-switch-shipments-in-july-and-august/

Without that announcement I would have said the same as June for both months. As I assume production increase happens slowly, I think August will see more sales than July, just because of better shipments. September will probably the first months where demand is met by supply, until holidays where it will be again to less supply. So I say +10% above June in July and +20% in August.

As we have no hardware numbers yet, I have to guess there too. Let's say baseline is 150K a week. That makes it roughly 700K a month in June, 770K in July and 850K in August.

I dont think the baseline has ever been as low as 150k (according to vgc) so I think that's lowballing it a bit. I cant seem to find the thread anymore but there was a thread with all the weekly hardware sales and there was not a single one below 200k. Last week revealed had it at 170k though.

No, it was not there, but the hardware is still back at end of April, start of may. As it dropped below 200K with the start of may, I assume the production pre-ramp-up is below 200K. 150K was a wild pick, but based on that japanese numbers still dropped after that, so I think it may happen worldwide too. As in most regions demand still is not met, I think that is production capacity and before it was simply residue in the channels from launch. But yeah, 150K may be low, that's why I said my real prediction is 10% and 20% above June, whatever that is.
