Switch will be YOY in the next few weeks in both Software and Hardware, it's already started the trend this week. Ring Fit, Momotaro and New Horizon and a bunch of other evergreens and new games will actually end up driving higher sales than Pokemon Sword / Shield did last year. Minecraft for example sold the same amount it did last year, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is already way ahead of what the game was doing last year. The next few weeks hardware can definitely be higher than 2019.

I mean just think about all the sales outside of the covered 30 list, this holiday will be much larger than 2019 for Nintendo and 3rd Parties. And in terms of hardware it might be only slightly up 25-50%, But I expect far more growth in terms of software sales in the next 4 weeks. Last year was weak for software outside of Pokemon Sword / Shield
