It was so much enough that it took 8 months for they to meet demand |
they still haven't met demand in japan, he seems to think that because you launch in the holidays they can make or plan for way more systems, which i showed him over and over again is not true, most console manufacturers don't want to over supply, because they will take losses, if they can't sell there consoles fast enough or they cant make enough consoles to make the holiday dead line. it's most likely that nintedndo wanted to launch in holiday 2016, many rumors were stating this, but they just weren't ready, so they did march launch, the biggest launch in console history is ps4, and it only shipped, 4.2 million units during the holidays in comparisons switch has shipped 2.74 million in 17 days less and thats with switch being sold out, now compare that to a full ps4 holiday where it ships 7.8-8.1 million not including a launch boost.
