David Gibson of Astris Advisory, who has a good track record in the industry, reckons the current global semiconductor shortage is affecting Switch supply.

Everyone in the industry is affected by the semiconductor shortage.

Nintendo is less exposed to it though due to it's chips being older and on an older manufacturing process with less congestion... But it is definitely still there as NAND, RAM and other components are still susceptible to the chip crunch.
