You have to remember that there's a lot of stock left from the year before, so you have to sell that first. 

And 2M in January is a lot, i don't even know if prime Wii or prime PS2 were able to do that.

 

I am saying sales not shipments (2 Million for January) it is high so far first week in Japan 200k Switch sold is all we know. But that can easily put them at 600-800K for W1 of January sold. Smash legs is still in place. Tales of Vesperia and SMBUD release tomorrow. Plus Travis Strikes Again and Smite come to Switch this month. Pretty good lineup for January. February looks bleak unless there are some announcements. March has Yoshi but not until the end of the month.

In my case, i was saying shipments because that's what we were discussing at that moment.

2M sold to consumers worldwide is still a lot. Switch is not going to sell 200K each week of January, only this week probably, then it will go back to usual baseline of 50k in time. Sales in the west drop a lot in January too, so don't expect the pace of Nov and Dec in January either.
