That's a possibility I fear too. 

Is it feasible to retrieve the stock and resell it after changing the package and adding a game?

Lite will come with tomodachi included, which is a recent game.

OG Ns will come with mario kart 8 dx, pre existing bundle (maybe this is having a clearance, being the oldest hardware and the least popular among the three by far) 

Both titles in physical form.

In that scenario, are you implying that we would see zero shipments in the last two fiscal quarters? 

First of all I can't know anything for sure, and can't be sure. I am just giving it as a possibility. However if that is really the case, then either zero shipments for Europe, or very little, and those little will be in this holiday quarter, no in the next year's one.

For reference Switch 1 has shipped 40.14M in Europe till end of June, and has sold 39.96M till end of September according to VGChartz. If none were shipped last quarter there are still ~200k unsold units. If there were some shipped there will be 300 or 400k left to sell (depends on what were shipped in the last quarter that ends in September), but for reference the last two quarters shipments to Europe were 120k and 110k respectively.

If we have to do the math, Switch 1 is selling between 30 to 40k each month all year. Put another 30k for October. Put some 60k for November, it's often double the normal month (last year was even lower). Put some 100k for December, and you got a possible sales of around 200k more. Exactly about what the shipments to sold gap is. You want to throw in January ? Okay some 25k more. Doesn't make the difference. Either way they can live without those, or just had some 50k more shipped in the last quarter and it's done.
