Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Nintendo legs continues and Switch almost 100k!

Pretty decent boost for switch this week, anyone have any idea what the baseline is anymore? It just seems to be up and down so much now which I assume is due to stock.



OTBWY on 02 July 2020

14 million milestone reached, almost 100K. This is a train that cannot, will not, stop.



UnderwaterFunktown on 02 July 2020

Ring Fit and Clubhouse Games are on a roll. And AC ofc but that feels redundant to state at this point.
Last of Us II dropping like a JRPG, but that was probably to be expected. Its opening was really impressive for a western IP though.



Major Switch Titles Launch Aligned

2022 predictions:

  • Switch - 24m
  • PS5 - 15.5m
  • Xbox Series - 10m

14m mark and RFA putting in work.

Gosh almost 100k for Switch!?! AC still cranking



Slownenberg on 02 July 2020

insane Switch numbers! Almost 100k for the week just because Nintendo shipped more. 14 million! Might hit 17 million this year! AC, RF, Clubhouse Games all killing it. AC 5 mil and MK8 3 mil. Big milestones this week. Not much more to say than just "wow"!

I expected less stock for this week, but meh... it's a guessing game. Next week should be lower than this one though.

The 2019 YTD continues to be off by 18 units in my table. I am still not sure why Famitsu did something to their old numbers and I can't be bothered to look up everything again because of such a small discrepancy.

On ERA Chris1964 commented the following:

Lotteries will continue at least until the end of summer.

There's another big unaccounted shipment for the quarter that was sent to retailers yesterday and whatever My Nintendo Store has provided, hardware for Japan could be close to 1,1m.

A few other comments on different retailers and lotteries for the current week (27).  Suggests that shortages should continue throughout the summer BUT week 27 will include a shipment to close out calendar month of June and seems like supply will be higher in W27 vs. W26 as a result.  So I think we'll have another ~95-100K week to end June / start July and then fall back down afterwards.

NSW is up 80% over last year, in the first 6 month.
I don’t believe it will keep this pace. That would result in 8 millions for 2020.
But 7 million should be possible.
