So from what I've read the drop is caused by afternath of the Obon holiday. People don't buy much hardware after holiday ends. No wonder, this week is terrible for the consoles. Next week the sales might pick up against although I would bet on the Elden Ring to push some Switches 2.

Yes, that's why last year for Switch 2 was only 35k, which was it's worst week ever before the price rise in April. Even by post Obon sales standards though this week is very poor for hardware.
