How on earth would Nintendo know the sell-through up to the 1st of February on the very same day they announce it? 

Use some common sense ffs... Where I work we only had accurate information on our yearly results more than a month later (we're also a sales company). 

they would know the sell through up to the date of the 28th of January.

Again, this is pure assumption on your part. How do you know how long it takes for reliable sales figures to come through? It takes NPD over 2 weeks to come up with reliable figures and that's for ONE country! Knowing how conservative Nintendo is, i would guess their figures are from way before that date. As for your careful scrutiny of rough charts with little info, again i ask, why do you go to so much trouble? You are like a dog with a bone. I really thought you were going to give up with your Switch numbers obsession but i guess not.
