I think there was a lot of pent up demand for Switch going into the holidays. This pent up demand was because there were shortages for much of the year. These shortages were caused by both high demand and by low supply from factories that had to shut down for a while due to COVID. So in that sense COVID prevented Nintendo from supplying enough. Near the end of the year, I think they were producing a lot, but they didn't have the time to stock up enough.
