So Nintendo selling 24M Switch per year? Sure will happen.

....

What company has static shipment supplies like that? 

Then the report should be "Nintendo to have a production of 2M per month for the next 3 months" or "Nintendo can now produce up to 2M per month"

But I should tell you that depending on the market and your cost of overtime versus stocking, competitors movement, missing opportunity and etc you could have a static supply volume (would say older model) or room for emergency contracts.

Mr Puggsly: "Hehe, I said good profit. You said big profit. Frankly, not losing money is what I meant by good. Don't get hung up on semantics"

"Nintendo are making A LOT of Switches (until they aren't)." Happy now?

Literally no one but you thought they meant for a long time ... it's the holidays ... why would the report have to specify?

But I do agree, the report in general seems to be very ... debatable in trustworthyness

The one that needs to be clear and precise is the report, so if they aren't that is their issue not of anyone pulling it different. I have seem several people on this thread questioning it.

2m a month even isn't enough for the holiday period. Iirc, the wii had 2 2m WEEKS going by data here, over the Christmas period.

Digitimes is not reliable, they got several things wrong about the NX/Switch.
