Here was my US Oct 2021 guess last week after week 1.

On IB Benji says OLED is already highly supply constrained in the US.  Oct NPD numbers will be something. 

Quick guess:

Week 1 293K (225K OLED / 70K Other) < Using VGC's USA figure

Week 2 120K (60K OLED / 60K Other)

Week 3 120K (70K OLED / 70K Other)

Week 4 200K (120K OLED / 80K Other) < Fresh shipment at the end of the month along with Mario Party

700-750K, maybe higher.  Think it'll be fairly competitive with Oct 2020.

Actuals so far:

Week 1 293K

Week 2 138K

If VGC numbers hold up, the Switch NPD OCT 2021 has a solid shot at topping NPD OCT 2020.  Only needs about 300K in the next two weeks - all dependent on supply.

Actuals so far:

Week 1 293K

Week 2 138K

Week 3 167K

Week 4 is Mario Party release.  Unless VGC is way overtracking, the Switch is heading towards an Oct NPD result that will rival Wii 08 in units and is almost certainly an all time record in revenue even if it falls short with the OLED's $350 MSRP bring ASP up high. 

Needs 138K in week 4 to tie NSW 2020's mark.
