Ah, yea. Just checked media create today, nice 130k and 140k respectively for the last two week figures I was longing for. I heard there were pretty big stock issues in Japan (there were weeks where the Switch was only selling 20k weekly in Japan), so if 70-100k is now a recurrent weekly figure for Japan, I think 200k weekly should be pretty free, considering that the USA is usually the best market for Nintendo by far with most consoles, and Europe, despite not being a dependable market, should pull off at least 40-50k every week. Considering the Switch is much bigger now than then (+20 million produced for 2018- don't know how much of that share goes to Japan), I guess we shouldn't be seeing 20k-30k weekly in Japan again. I guess games don't really matter as much I seem to be making them out to be as the first week of Jan had no new releases in Japan. But I shouldn't jump to conclusions too quickly.
