Not really. imagine if switch did 300k this month, people out look on 20 million would be way more likely wouldn't you agree? each month is a indicator where the market is going. plus like another person pointed out this is the 4th month of the year and we are looking at a trend. honestly labo could have been a difference  maker, it could have been a huge hit nobody really knew till now with such a unique product from nintendo.

I don't think you get how these shipment estimate things work.

Nintendo says they are gonna ship 20M for the fiscal years starting apr 1st 2018 and ending march 31st 2019. That does not mean they plan on selling 20M consoles. They could even very well expect to sell 17.5M consoles and have around 2.5M in the channels then ship very little units in the first quater of the start of the next fiscal year.

Holy crap it works :) well done Symbios.

Now we just need it to work about 5 more times in say over 7 NPDs then we can really say it works. Good start though.

I don't see  sell through at 17.5 million as possible. if they sell 17.5 million, 2.5 million isn't all that much. i think sell through will be around 14 million.
