Based on the best numbers we do have, for Jan.-July, approximately 3.7M, give or take. Total Switch sales in the same period of 2020 were 3.65M. So, as of the end of July the Switch's 2021 may be slightly ahead of its 2020. However, it's worth pointing out that back in May its 2021 was behind its 2020 by about 100k or so, and it caught back up because June & July 2020 were relatively slow months for the Switch compared to adjacent months, almost certainly because of stock issues. August, September, and October are in 2020's favor, as each one was substantially better than ~100k weekly average we've been seeing the past several months. The Switch sold 1910k in that period last year, an average of 147k/week. If the Switch continues to average around 100k/week, then its 2021 will likely fall back behind its 2020 by the end of September, and unless the OLED is an absolute juggernaut that pushes October to 900k-1M, then the Switch's 2021 is likely going to remain behind its 2020 by the end of October. |
Thanks! Seems it will be a close one if this holiday can top last years.
