So how many Switches have been sold at this point, something like 4 million? The wii u was about 3.5 million in the first 3 months. It doesn't seem like a world of difference at this point in actual ownership of the console even if the wii u had retailers saturated with consoles and the Switch has customers waiting for their console. I thought optimistically we might have seen up to 6 million at this point and then a downturn as Nintendo had satisfied their main fanbase. It still seems like millions more are needed just to get to that point.

Seems like the stock situation in uk is back to being partially stocked with many Argos stores having neon Switches and a few online retailers with non scalper prices.

I'm pretty sure it didn't reach that. More like 2.5M maybe, but the WiiU baseline hit like 30k weekly in 3 months, so there's a massive difference between both situations. I think that the best WiiU year haven't even reached 4M. Switch seems like it might have a 150k baseline until the production ramps up.
