From Nintendo's Earning Release
For Nintendo Switch, hardware sales in every region have been trending upwards since the video game expo, E3, was held in the US in June. In parallel with an increase in digital sales, software sales also have been moving in good shape towards the holiday season.

Nintendo is also keeping their forecast of 20 million HW and 100 million SW sales for this FY.
---------------------------------------------
We'll have to see in the long run I guess if that's truly the case, but the momentum difference is more due to a slow period of releases during this period. The first quater won't tell too much yet for the Switch's momentum for the whole fiscal year. As above Nintendo Nintendo specifically mentioned Switch trending upwards since E3 were the data cuts off after 2 weeks.
