I was referring to this post by me.

A discussion with zorg but I also had miyamoto in my mind ( or many other people, because the expectations of the majority was the same with zorgs') when I was writing that...

Yes, I was expecting some 300k+ weeks, we didnt got 300k+ weeks but we got 280k weeks 3 times in a row, so not big difference in any case compared to 300k+ week.

Also your claim that "ns has a problem in Japan, which in the long run will become more and more visible" is pure nonsense, Switch has very good sales in Japan in any case and with price cut and revision sales can be only better.

And 350k+ in week 51 right? Voila, 280k and prior to pokemon, smash and bundles release, it had gone yoy down compared to a year that it was supply constrained. 

NS problem is that while it destroys the way cheaper 3ds in the west and sells as much as 3ds+wii u or even a bit more, which is what is meant to do since it is both handheld and home console for 300$, in Japan it's trailing 3ds for 3m and it will get worse.

What happens untill hat speculative revision or price drop arrives? 

Fortunately, it won't be long till that, there is a rumor about revision releasing in 2019, hopefully it will be an NS lite, it makes more sense...
