The weeks which Nintendo had production issues and planned to sell only 10 millions in a year.. Production and demand is higher now I don't think the Switch will fall under 200k soon. The worst period is January with no big titles but it's usually a pretty solid month overall. February we have Bayonetta 1+2 so we will be fine.

 

Kicking off next FY with Kirby will be great.

It looks like the VGZ numbers for the week of Dec 16th were adjusted for Switch. It looks like it pulled over 800k when previously listed as 730k iirc. Looking good so far. US numbers were the lowest out of the big three consoles but now it's the highest.

Yea i saw the NPD approximations and Switch won by a kinda big margin to be honest. That's really impressive considering how it will be stronger next year for sure. The console will have bundles, the word of mouth will be working its way, there was no big family title for the holidays. Mario was released 2 months from Christmas and its really far from what Nintendo can bring out for Christmas.

 

I think with no more stock issues in US and Japan and most likely a boost in Europe like last Nintendo consoles, the Switch can easily come close to 20 millions without forcing too much. If they have Smash, a 2D mario and animal crossing, there is no way it will not reach 20 million.
