Aww I was hoping the Switch was gonna be up YoY. Still being only 13% down is good and a few months ago there was no way I would expect it to be over 500k this week. Something of note is this should be the last week of the 3DS being above 10k.

I also was hoping they would be up YoY.  I actually think if Nintendo shipped more systems to Japan then they could have done it.  Sales are still good this week, but also Switch is in short supply in several places, especially Japan.  I think they could have been up this week if they had shipped more.

You're probably right it could've been up if more systems were shipped to Japan. I suppose they wanna save more units for the holidays which makes sense due how massive demand will be.
