A little unfair on Labo since it's only had a week in sales. It still isn't the greatest start but, like a few have stated, it will probably pick up again for the holiday.

It won't really pick up for the holiday if it's kind of a failure until then.

 

Kids want what is popular at the moment. If nobody cares about Labo in a few months, I don't see why a kid would wake up one day and say "Hey, now I want a Nintendo Labo!". The go-to gift will most likely be some new thing their friends are talking about at school or something like that. 

I disagree. Nintendo is unique in the way it promotes it's games. Nintendo is probably the best at advertising games that are "old". We will probably  see Nintendo advertise the hell out of Labo during the holiday like it just released. 

Most companies advertise it's games at launch and that's it, while Nintendo isn't afraid to promote their games years down the line. It probably one of the reasons why some of its games are so leggy.
