For the record. Taking a look through Christmas week sales I see only two other times where a console exceeded a weekly 300,000 - the two weeks leading up to Christmas in December 2006, both DS (presumably mostly DS Lite). Wii came close to 300K on Christmas week that year, but did not break it. Overall Christmas week 2006 saw over 750,000 sales for the two Nintendo consoles - which is far from regular since it is the record by quite a large margin.
So far, it looks like the Switch just sold the 3rd best week in Japanese history excluding launch weeks (I didn’t check those numbers). I also didn’t check Golden week, so there might be more records. Anyone with time?
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
