Heads up: Your Switch monthly sales seem over by about 100k. Your weekly totals don't add up to 300k.

True it's a bit north of 200k, perhaps he also counted the first week of May in which the PS5 was massively outsold by Switch due to the ToTK bundle. PS5 numbers also don't add up, should be around 175k where Switch is a bit north of 200k of we add up the numbers.

That is definitely the case. He counted the first week of May in Japan because two weeks were reported together.

I had made a typo with the weekly sales that I have now corrected. It should be right now. The monthly figures were correct. I didn't just split it 50/50 as the Zelda OLED would have pushed more consoles to be sold in the last week of April than first week of May. Plus, our estimates don't exactly match Famitsu.
