Nice! Seems sales charts are starting to pour in a bit quicker!

Hopefully the Switch does better than the XBONE in the coming weeks.

ive noticed a bit of a trend, it seems like they get a month or so behind then post a few weeks in rapid succession then another month with no hardware numbers and so on.

Switch will overtake XBO in the next 2-3 weeks.

But arent these charts flat out wrong?

I mean, global sales in march were 2.74Million units.. Which would be week 4 or 5. This chart has it at 2.88 in week 7..

TBH, I think it was because a lot of people saw it as more of a handheld than a home console (myself included). In this case, the price was pretty much absurd. However, Nintendo positioned it as a home console. As its success don't seem to be impacting negatively the sales of PS4/X1, I guess that the Wii crowd probably skipped the Wii U entirely and is now upgrading to the Switch.

If that is indeed the case, then we could see the Switch reaching numbers close to the Wii while PS4/X1 combined would beat PS360 and (a HUGE maybe) this gen could end up with more consoles sold than the previous.

And yes, Switch is a current gen console, not an "early next-gen" machine. They simply cancelled the Wii U and launched a real successor to the Wii. It's clear that Nintendo will cut its lifespan when PS5/X2 launch, probably only trailing Sony and MS for 1.5-2 years or such. 

It's possible sales for Switch are undertracked, but I'm pretty sure 2.7 million were shipped by the end of March. VGChartz had Switch sales at 2,460,838 by the end of March which is a 90% sell through of that shipment which seems likely enough, considering the last shipment could of been sent out just before the end of March before it had a chance to reach consumers.

2.74 million is shipped, 2.46 million is sold at the end of March which is 90% sell through.

This sites numbers are right around what they should be.
