So I assume the Switch in January 2020 probably sold around 270K since we know that in 2019 it sold 284K and Jan 2020 was down in the single digit percent from 2019.

Also it seems like the Switch sold between 381k<NSW<422K based off the fact that it had the best January since 2010 Wii. I'm going to assume it sold 400K in January 2021.

Assuming this, we could infer that the Switch is up around 45%YoY in January 2021, which is quite impressive. Obviously this was well before the Covid/AC boost so we have to see how it performs once March rolls around, but a 4 year old console being up 45%YoY is impressive no matter what way you look at it.

This prediction also goes along with Famistus sales where we've seen weeks approximately 40% up YoY and the down weeks we had had to do with calendar differences as well as stock issues where people in Japan scrambled for a Switch in 2020 before stock depleted. It seems like Nintendo is manufacturing just enough Switch's to be up approximately around 40-50% for January and February for all regions.
