Heh so atleast untill 28 november there was an supply issue based on the sporadic sales.
Which again those posts dont disprove. Honestly based on how steady that +-90k beginning week of 6 dec and afterwards im taking the logical step thats the supply limit.
Yes seeing stock on shelves is not selling out at that moment in time but that doesnt equal no shortages over a timeperiod

Its a sign of more availability

And that’s what I said from the beginning, I didn’t claim OLED never had shortages, I said it did at launch but has been solved since early December.

I’m also not claiming there are mountains of OLED models sitting and waiting to be sold, like Hiska & Chris mentioned, supply and demand were at similar levels so Switch selling 90k+/week but shipping 100k+/week would still mean relatively limited stock early in the month but retailers were not holding lotteries and there weren’t scalpers selling it above retail price which are indicators that shortages are gone.

It’s not like Nintendo could ship 150k/week and all of a sudden OLED sales would jump to 140k+.

Amazon OLED  now is only with 3rd party retailers above the standard price.
