Well those same 5 days period for Wii would be very strong in any case (Wii had crazy sales) and Switch having best those 5 day period and better than Wii means we talking about strong sales in any case for that period.
Also like RolStoppable wrote, Looking at VGC's estimates for Black Friday week in 2017 (472k) and taking NPD results from last November into account (770k), it seems reasonable to assign ~400k to the five-day-period in 2017. So if 400k is the base value and sales grew by 115%, the result is 860k.
We also know that Switch had its best week in US, meaning that beat even launch Switch week in US.
Thats a PR, and Nintendo already had some weird PR statements before, so it wouldnt be hard to imagine they focused on sales for that just 5 day period and just add that to LT numbers (including October) and thats why they said "more than 8.2m", and that versions fits most when you calculating numbers. Also, have on mind that even with that more than 8.2m we comparing Nintendo internal vs NPD numbers.

NIntendo has one weird statement in the last decade and that's mario kart attach rate, which is totally different then giving clear LTD numbers. what's the chances they got it wrong again, basically slim to none.

No, that's just one of latest, its not only one.

See my above post and I've already outlined the issue with the Wii since were going off of make belief numbers when we have no idea on which 5 days were the best for the Wii nor do we know the figure for that either ...

Well we probably talking about 5 days that are part of 2008. 800k week because that was biggest Wii week in that period. Also like I wrote, 5 days period for Wii would be very strong in any case (Wii had crazy sales) and Switch having best those 5 day period and better than Wii means we talking about strong sales in any case for that period.
