Or they could just convert the WiiU chart to a composite chart? Or even more radical approach, make them all a pie Chart!!!! Its still a chart innt?

It definitely wasnt supply constrained in Europe.

It never sold out on any Amazon sites, probably a bad thing for Scalpers who bought 20 of those consoles.

Whenever I'm on Amazon Germany it is sold out. Even the Joy-Cons are sold-out... so yes, it is supply constrained. It doesn't have to be sold out all the time to be so either. If Europe gets one shipment per week and that sells out after 3 days that's a supply constrained console even though you can find it in stores 4 out of 7 days.

Edit: Yep, just checked it. The grey model is sold out. They have one neon model in stock right now. The cheapest grey model you can get on Amazon Germany is €379. The cheapest Neon model is €409. (The one model available sold while I was editing my post!)

The Switch sold 1.3m 'WW'? That's not really that good when you compare it to the launches of the XB1 and the PS4.

If you don't think that the holidays would make a big difference...... then yeah!

What are you talking about? It was sold out on Amazon UK for over a month after release - the Grey version only got back in stock TODAY. Maybe in some tiny Eastern-Europe markets it wasn't sold out, but they don't particularly matter for sales.

Lulz, it wasnt sold out before launch and at launch, thats why I cancelled my 100 Switch preorders I wanted suckers to buy
