My guess as to why NS2 "only" moved 50k units this week is that anybody interested in purchasing a Switch 2 for games such as Splatoon Raiders and FE: Fortune's Weave has already picked up a system in advance, prior to the price hike. We probably won't see a software launch sending hardware "through the roof" until Switch Sports Resort at the soonest. 50k hardware is pretty solid with this in mind, especially when considering that Raiders is a spin-off.

More or less what I would think, too.

However, I do expect the baseline to rise a bit (27k-30k), as I'm sure it turned out better than many thought, so stragglers will come to buy the console for this game.

Edit: Though next week's sales will probably also be impacted by the earthquake in Japan somewhat, so I'd say that one's a special week.
