It's certain that this year's baseline will continue to be higher than last year's, so the next five weeks are bound to be easy wins for 2020. The situation in 2019 was that both the updated hybrid SKU and the Lite were known, so weekly sales leading up to them were rather low. Launch weeks for the SKUs were week 35 and 38, respectively.

Switch is at week 29 and its sales are about the same as week 44 last year. It's tracking 3.5 months ahead of last year. That's pretty frikkin amazing. In a couple more weeks we'll be comparing YTD sales to 2019's Pokemon release and the holidays.
