...Well, i mean, you really think 2 million is THAT much? At this point i think 2 million over the original forecast (10 million ) should be the minimum, i mean considering how strong is the demand they could as very well ship 15 million during the FY18, and still not satisfy the demand.

I wasn't talking about demand. I'm just talking about Nintendo's ability to actually produce that many consoles. Given their Media Create and NPD sales, and the fact that they only shipped 1.96 million in Q1, I think 12 million is more on the high end of what they can really produce, especially with the rumored parts shortage in effect.

Q1 ended before the first out of 3 production increases announced for this year was taking effect. With Inreases 1&2 having been in Juli and late September, we will see in 10 days how much they actually improved the situation in terms of shipments. And seeing how well they are doing here on Amazon US right now, still before increase number 3, I'm pretty sure 12M is lowest end of what they can do.
