Regardless of software releases, Nintendo systems traditionally have their peak holiday sales in December within Japan, rather than in November.

Even with Smash Ultimate's release on 7th, Switch might even sell more for week 51 ending December 23rd like it did last year, but that's just a complete guess.

Anyways it's a good sign to see such high performance this early bringing Switch sales up year over year before the month of December. Not even last year had a 200K+ week in November even including Super Mario Odyssey's launch week and that was really the only big holiday title for Switch last year in Japan.
