It's too bad Europe really let the Switch down. It's the only region where the switch is significantly lower than the other best selling consoles. Although Europe seems to be moving away from consoles in general.
Still the Switch is easily the most impressive console I've seen in terms of sales. The level of competition for people's attention has never been higher. Other consoles, pc, smartphones, social media, streaming etc. Along with coming off of one of Nintendo's least successful consoles ever and having to build up good will with people all over again. Then being hit with RAM shortages stopping them from being able to lower the prices and new legislation killing the console off earlier in Europe and general financial instability hurting its late life sales. No console has ever had the odds so stacked against it and been so successful.
