I think the Switch 2 Direct caused a boost in sales this week, and I wouldn't be surprised if Switch sales were even higher next week.  The Direct was divisive.  Clearly there are some who saw it and now can't wait to get a Switch 2.  However, others saw it and decided either to seriously delay getting a Switch 2 or not get one altogether.  The pricing in particular really burned some Nintendo fans.

I'm expecting a long tail to Switch sales as some people transition to Switch 2 and others hold fast to Switch 1.

That might be the case globally but why would the price be divisive in Japan when it's priced lower in Japan than other regions?  That's the one country that wouldn't have concerns about hardware pricing.
