I can't remember if we had any console yet which was able to sell more than 400k within one week in Japan...

DS sold:

603k in japan week ending dec 24th 2005

492k week ending dec 23th 2006

458k week ending dec 4th 2004

3DS sold:

497k week ending dec 24th 2011

422k week ending dec 22nd 2012

Switch best week so far has been what ? 390k? There is still room for improvement. Switch hasn't reached 400k week, 450k, 500k let alone the record braking DS week of over 600k.

DS was nuts in Japan in 2nd/3rd year

Switch best week is 380k by the looks of it, which also appears to be the only time any hardware* has sold over 300k outside of holiday/launch weeks.... power of lockdown boredom.

*at least from DS/PSP till now... i'm curious what things like Pokemon release on GBC & GBA might have done to sales.
