2021 below 200k, so even a reduced full year target of 5.7m is in danger now.

Considering the global scale, the bits and pieces of sales data we've received from other continents point to global shipments being lower during the holiday quarter than a year ago, likely in the area of of minus 10%, so the shipment breakdown for Nintendo's fiscal Q3 and Q4 should end up being 10.0-10.5m and 5.0-5.5m, respectively.

Switch sold 3.00 million by week 26 so it has sold more in the first half of the year than the second half, has this happened before?

This is in part because the holiday season in Japan is partially in January. Week 1 2021 was bigger than any week in December or November.
