I mean I guess you could say all those are reasons, but the bigger issue is that nearly half of the Switch's market is in Japan, which means that a ton of Switch's are going into Japan and not America. 2 million Switch's have been sold in Japan, 2.6 have been sold in America. It's like being a native to Japan and asking why are PS4 sales so low if it's breaking so many records? (the analogy isn't perfect because the U.S. is one of Nintendo's biggest markets, but the point is that having nearly equal holding in two territories makes a limited console seem less impressive in one territory)...It just does not make a whole lot of sense. |
Bold: funnily that's actually something I've scratched by head over all the time since I've started following console sales ten years ago. Why are the Japan sales numbers for Sony and others so small for a country with 127 million people and a population supposedly so crazy about video games?
