Poor assumption.
Some people are wiling to spend $300-400 on gadgets anytime of the year while other people will only spend that on special occassions (holiday/birthday/etc).
If a parent was looking to get a Switch for their kids as a Christmas present but couldnt find one and got their kids something else instead, they arent necessarily going to buy one just because its available a couple months later. They may wait until the following Christmas.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
