How come Labo is a flop if it has sold more than 1.4 million already?I feel like either Aqua had a bigger expectation for the game, or he has been feed wrong information.Because I can see these numbers being dissapointing, depending on Nintendo expectations, but not a flop.

I'm guessing its a flop in that store shelves most likely still have the original shipment on their shelves.  So it seems like an overreach on Nintendo's and retailers expectations.

EDIT:

So after EThomaz post she mentioned that sales of the Pro did collapse month to month (June to July) and that there is a shortage nationwide (which is pretty much what we have been seeing and talking about here), again take it with a couple grains of salt but all the signs (amazon, Bestbuy, Gamestop, target, Walmart all saying very little to no Pro's online or at their stores) and this means that something is up and is effecting monthly totals.  Oddly enough it seems to be just a US problem.

Sony needs to get it together. First Japan and now the US. Is this some marketing tactic? Or parts issues like the Switch had last year?
