I'm not understanding why switch numbers are close to US in europe. based on nintendo own graph NA sales are on another level vs europe.

Shipments as of Dec 31

Americas-5.94m

Others-5.20m (87.5% of Americas)

 

This weeks sales

NA-76k

EU-63k

JP-52k

ROTW-32k

 

ROTW includes regions that fall in Americas & Others so lets split it right down the middle.

 

NA+1/2 ROTW=92k

EU+1/2 ROTW=79k (85.8% of Americas)

 

 

Perhaps its overtracked in EU, but i doubt its by a huge amount.

if we look at last year sales up to jan 21,  japan sales seem to be better then europe, the graph clearly shows japan has a lead, even with massive shortages in japan, so based on this graph europe sales should be around 40-50k a week.
