A record-breaking launch doesn't mean everything. Many people base their assessments on the Switch 2 launch. If the Switch 1 or the PS5 had had the same stock as the Switch 2, they would have had the same sales at launch. I work at Micromania in France. In my store, Switch 2 sales aren't that strong; we sell far more PS5s than Switch 2s. The problem is the price. Customers find it too expensive and don't see any difference compared to the Switch 1. As a result, they prefer to go for the PS5 or keep their Switch 1. This is also why stores in France have further reduced their profit margins on the Switch 2, because from what I've heard from colleagues at Fnac and Auchan, it's the same situation there. I'm not saying it doesn't sell, sales are good, but not that strong, and there isn't that much enthusiasm for the Switch 2 compared to the Switch 1. The lack of games doesn't help either.
