I see no reason for nintendo to lie about the 8.2 million number in a very detailed article via business wire, switch will end  up 800-950k for november book it.

Hardly they would lied, but it wouldn't be first time their PR is not most accurate.

What is very possible is that with "more than 8.2m" numbers gave us numbers until October with this "5 day period sales", so without other November numbers. And that would actually make sense, because it expected that Switch in that period sold around 800-900k (because thats more than Wii best week and perfectly fit with those "more than 8.2m" sold units).

 

Also, this one of latests Benji posts:

-I think estimating anywhere from 1.1 million - 1.5 million for Switch in November is realistic. I know that's a big range but given the PR (outside the weird LTD figure) it seem highly unlikely it's either below or above that figure

 -Considering we have Switch doing a confirmed over 800k on BF week alone, yeah. Switch and PS4 are going to be very close come NPD in November. And likely unless Sony have something big planned for December Switch may end up the best selling hardware for the Year

I see you are cherry picking information now.

Again...... The SWITCH was never compared even by nintendo to the BEST WEEK of the WII. It was compared t the best BF to CM 5 day window.

And it was also said to have had the BEST WEEK for the SWITCH since its launch not across all nintendo platforms. 

Pls, read in between the lines.

Mind you my prediction for Switch sales for November was around 1.3M. I am just saying your interpretation of the information given is wrong.
