First time in three weeks that I post this. To the surprise of nobody, 2021's YTD lead has shrunk considerably the past few weeks. It's inevitable that it will drop into the five-digit-range next week, but afterwards it should be an interesting battle for the important question whether or not 2021 can hold onto its lead until the launch of the OLED model in early October (week 41, if my count is correct).

Bold: Week 40.

I don't see it keeping it's lead. Post Obon week will likely go even lower than before. Sub 50k seems possible for several weeks.



How are you doing kenjab, better than last week I hope?

Yes, doing much better thanks! I ended up having surgery Sunday and I'm back home recovering but my PC is in the basement and stairs are tough right now so all posts are from the phone atm.

Glad to hear that, once again all the best for your recovery. :)

Switch's difference cumulative should be pretty much 0 when the OLED model launches. Then 2021 should (re)take the lead until the end of this year. I hope Nintendo has enough stock for Japan.
