May is the slowest month of the year in the Japanese market, so woeful hardware sales all around. Despite easy year over year comparisons ahead, it may take several weeks until Switch's 2020 is 1m ahead of 2019 year to date, although it's still not 100% clear if shortages have been completely resolved by now. In any case, it's better to set expectations low for the coming weeks.

If it outsells 2019 by the week even a little it should do it soon. Word for XCDE week will be much better. It’s so unpredictable as they sell what Nintendo ships
