NSW '21 is doing extremely well. It keeps pulling further ahead of DS '08, which was the DS's best year. This does help me appreciate how well the DS was doing in early '07 though. The DS was definitely a force to be reckoned with. I'll be eager to see how NSW '21 compares to the other years once MHR releases. |
FWIW, NDS 08 is a 53 week year on VGChartz (just like 2020). Through 52 weeks, NDS 07 was indeed slightly ahead.
That said, per Nintendo's FY shipments, NDS FY07 (04 07 - 03 08) was ~30M and NDS FY08 (04 08 - 03 09) was ~31M, so they are definitely neck-and-neck.
I think NSW 21 will take the #1 spot in the end. Much stronger predicted SW lineup than last year and they had supply issues all year last year that they've now had time to prepare for (we're still seeing shortages, but not as bad). If they can get the Pro revision out in Sep, I expect 33-35M. If its a Nov release, maybe 30-32M. If it gets pushed to next year then be right around 2020's range.
