Over 74 million units sold as of the 4th week of December.

That is...

Soul-crushingly disappointing.

Unless I'm missing something, that means it still hasn't outsold the 3DS and it is way, way, WAY over-tracked.

I am not quoting this to explain what has already been explained, but merely to say that Nintendo's official sell-through estimates are bordering on becoming worthless by now. The gap between sell-through and shipments keeps increasing with each new announcement, but we know that Switch systems aren't piling up on store shelves.

in Europe tho?  I feel I always see a bunch of them in stores like Mediamarket in Europe.
