Probably a lack of supply during that drop

Speaking of Switch supply, shouldn't there be another raise incoming in fall?

Yes, but fall is a broad term. I've previously said that people shouldn't expect it to mean September, now we are almost through that month and it has indeed not happened. With Super Mario Odyssey's release in late October, that's pretty much the date when the next increase should be expected to happen, similar to how the first increase was kicked off with the Splatoon 2 release.

For Japan specifically, that will probably not manifest itself that strongly, because the holiday season in Japan starts later than in the rest of the world. America in particular should receive priority for Switch shipments in November while it's going to be a more modest increase in Japan.

Yeah, I thought I remembered something about another increase in production. I was also expecting it to come with SMO at first too, but considering how early it releases, it might not be in time for SMO and would only be really ready for black friday and Xenoblade 2
