Your "should have 2+ million" rule is made up.

Also there is no notable overtracking.

Vgchartz sales

N. America-6.90

Japan-4.54

Europe-4.91

RotW-1.91

 

Shipments

Americas-7.81

Japan-4.89

Other-6.97

How is anything made up? all we have is ps4 to compare to, and shipments are usually in the 2+ million range compared to sell through. As  for tracking numbers  you provided not sure what your point is, my point was vghcartz estimate have europe beating americas on a weekly bases , when nintendo shipments include europe and  ROTW and they are basically tied this quarter.

Sorry man, there is no 2M+ rule.

The most we could get to is that in general we have about 1-2 months worth of sales between shipped and sold (which covers in transit and shelf). That number may be 500k or 3M depending on the time of the year, success of the platform, etc.

Switch during first 6 or so months the shipped was sold or about equal to it. PS4 had times with like 2.5+ or less than 1.5 depending if they oversupplied to secure a holiday or if they are preparing a slim revision.

And sincerely 1 or 2M in the shelf is only relevant discussing if one or another if we had two system very close in sales and we wanted to see who is ahead, besides that it is at most statistical margin of error.

Yeah, i apologize. I was referring to a person(s) but not every1 means it in a negative way. Certain users like to downplay and i kinda didnt want to call them out.

 

That said its definetly a harder goal to hit but its not impossible. At least not yet

Ahhhh you are good man. I know we have some odd apples on the site of every fan base lol. But yes the goal is a little harder but definitely not impossible by any means!

Side note - Didn't Sony release their results as well? Had there been a thread made for it? Was just wondering before I went ahead and made it.

They did. Sony shipped 3.2M (100k less than same Q last year.. so similar to Switch being down 100k, but very different reasons)

lol are people really being negative about these numbers? They're fantastic, and have thus far included only one holiday season!

It's amazing how quickly we can forget where Nintendo was a mere year and a half ago; these are better than even the optimistic were willing to predict at the time.

Smash is still going to come out, a couple of Pokemon spinoffs, and then a true Pokemon title next year... this thing will keep on selling.

I'm pretty sure we could see people during NX time saying Switch would sell a looooooot. Sure we would see some doom predictions as well.

After first month though most Nintendo fans I would say where predicting very high sales.
