Thank you. If you felt any rush, I was only joking (half joking)

If they can keep up the sales like this it is a huge achievement but not the 160K tho =p

Could switch beat 3ds? 3ds's 300 to 400k next week's seems to much for the poor switch.

Those weeks will definitely be tough to keep up with, especially under constant supply constrains. But I think Nintendo has now worked out their supply chain and will be able to ship more and more units to the different parts of the world for the holiday season, so it might get closer to these numbers than one could think just a couple of weeks ago.

A more proper alignment between the two would shift the Switch over by one week, seeing as the 3DS was released in Week 8 of 2011 while the Switch came out on Week 9 this year. That means that, for their first Week 47, the Switch actually did better, 145,200 to the 3DS's 120,940. So far, so good for the Switch. Let's see if it can continue to outmatch or at least keep pace with the 3DS's first holiday season.

That's what the 2nd post is for, but I did mess up when updating it so its only up to about week 40

Would be crazy if it can match 3DS Dec sales considering that it costs twice as much, but that will be tough since 3DS had 3 weeks in a row that averaged 400k.
