This will be a low point this year due to post Obon but even with that context hardware is genuinely awful this week. Even post Obon in 2016 wasn't this poor so considering the Switch 1 will be basically dead next year things will get outright dire if both the Switch 2 and digital PS5 go up in price that year. Could be looking at a lot of the worst weeks ever for hardware sales since tracking began in such a scenario.
