So you think that Switch in more than rest of 3 weeks of November will sell just around 250k more?

That's seems highly unlikely, I mean we had reports from start of November than Switch is selling great and much better than in same period of last year and that Pokemon is moving consoles.

I don't believe in benji, it seems like he uses something like the prediction tool. I mean it's kinda ridiculous that we are trusting benji over official numbers, you said nintendo numbers does weird PR numbers  aside from mario kart attach rate there is no such case in the last 10 years, unless your talking about WW LTD which nintendo says its missing data, this is not the case here.

Its not point only about Benji, we had other things that points that Switch have good sales in any case, Amazon ranks, strong Pokemon launch, hints from other insiders...talking about Benji, he dont using nothing like prediction tool he just have access to some sales numbers in some big retailers (it seems that he works for one), also no one said that everything Benji saying is fact, but he from start of month he is very sure that Switch having very strong sales and stronger compared to last year, also he is not Nintendo fan or similar, for instance he was hole year saying that he thinks that Switch will not meat FY goal, but now in November he saying thats now much more posible.

Fact is that just a PR, and PR is made in way to spin off things and there can easily be made some mistakes espacily in comparison, fact that Nintendo done that last year means they could do something similar this time also, and this numbers are definitely fishy in any case. Also, have on mind that with those "more than 8.2m units", we talking about internal numbers while we try compare them with 3rd party numbers.

I mean non of this will change your mind in any case, so will need to wait for NPD report.
