I think Spain just underperformed relative to the others unless we find out more. Vandal is the outlet that reports later, or gamereactor? If its Vandal, I suppose we'll find out if there's a material difference soon enough.

agreed, if the 2019 model was the only normal model on the market.
seeing as it states 2019 model specifically

Insane how the PS5 went up in the US and Europe but randomly flatlined in Japan.

Here's a copy of the PR, from the Netherlands.

NINTENDO SWITCH HAS BEST SALES WEEK FOR BOTH
HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE IN THE NETHERLANDS AND EUROPE
New records broken for Nintendo Switch hardware and software sales
December 8, 2021 - During the week of November 22, in the Netherlands and the rest of Europe
more Nintendo Switch consoles and games were sold than in any other week since the
release of the console*.
The Nintendo Switch was released in March 2017 and will soon begin its sixth year
on the market. The Nintendo Switch family, which currently consists of the Nintendo Switch,
Nintendo Switch Lite and Nintendo Switch - OLED Model - sold more hardware than ever in the week that began
on November 22, sold more hardware than ever, breaking the previous record of November 2019
was broken.
Hardware sales were spurred by a temporary bundle consisting of a
Nintendo Switch console, a download code for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and an individual
three-month membership to Nintendo Switch Online, which allows friends and family to
can play compatible games together online.
There, week after week in November 2021, records were broken for sales of
Nintendo Switch software in Europe. In the week of November 15, across Europe, there were
more Nintendo Switch games sold than during any previous week in the
history of the console, a record that was surpassed the following week.
The most successful Nintendo Switch software launch in November was Pokémon
Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl on November 19. On the first weekend that
these two versions of this new Pokémon adventure were sold, they were together
sold more than six million copies* worldwide. In the Netherlands
these latest Pokémon adventures the fastest-selling Nintendo Switch titles ever.

looks like Switch is undertracked in Europe this week, because we know the previus record was 600.000 during black friday 2019 and Switch had his best week ever in Europe.



For a system nearing 5 years old, the Switch still punches like a champion, rivalling the performance of some of the best selling systems ever in their prime.
With 2022 looking stacked, it's 6th year could be well over 20 million too which is just insane.



When are the NPD numbers coming?



NPD NOV 21 public release delayed till Monday 12/13/21.

so thats without the lite?

It says 27,000 normal, 6,000 OLED, 35,000 combined.

So lite would be the missing 2,000.

It says 27k normal (23k of those the Mariokart and NSO pack) 6k OLED so yeah looks like lite is the other 2k
