That is indeed wierd, almost as if... the PS4 and XO wasnt released when those two launched?

But surely that can't be the answer...

Compared to the consoles that were out when the 3DS and Wii U were up for pre order this didnt happen.

lmao that's because they never started pre orders for those two just 2 weeks into the new year. This means absolutely nothing.

Not really surprised. It is a next-gen Nintendo console after all

Without trying to be a negative whore. Amazon doesn't require you to put a deposit or anything when pre-ordering and you can cancel anytime so..

But it is still good news

This never happened for the Wii U or 3DS.

Not even when the 3ds was first shown?

New hardware from a major company tends to do that in the age of preorders and global announcements.

You know it deserves the GOTY.

In one day of pre orders the Switch has already outsold what the PS4 and XB1 sold in two weeks.

Who buys a console in January which was already available in November and December with much better deals?

Of course the "yearly" sales of PS4 and XB1 are down so far.

Interesting, when did the pre-orders go live compared to when it had its first press conference?
