Switch Sports dropped 59%, but most of the evergreens dropped a similar percentage coming off of Golden Week. Makes me wonder what kind of drop Switch Sports will get next week. It might end up having some really incredible legs.

X|S outsold PS5 and it wasn't even close this week. Wow.

To Nintendo, it's healthy.

I wouldn't say horrific planning as sony has still managed to produce more PS5's than MS has been able to produce Xbox's. Beyond that, the Series S wasn't developed to deal with the chip shortage, it was developed as a low entry device similar to the digital PS5. I don't think either anticipated such a chip shortage in 2019 when these systems were being finalised. 

It's the baseline, just look at the OLED numbers already reaching saturation.

Meanwhile XBS and PS5 just need stock and then they would have 200k weekly.

...

Still good hold from Switch and XBS after Golden Week.

I would say the Series S is better designed for Japan, be it in size and energy efficiency.

Xbox Series X/S crossing 200k in Japan.

They've forecast 18m for FY 2023 so Q1's 2m shipments obviously isn't going to represent their production for the rest of the year. 2024 is really the latest its going to pass 4m in Japan and that wouldn't even represent half of its life, so it will easily excel well beyond 4m. There's no way it gets 4m and then suddenly stops selling when system sellers like Monster Hunter World 2 and Kingdom Hearts 4 will be arriving during or beyond that period. 

Switch had some really terrible Week 20s. So I wanted to compare this weeks numbers with the average baseline.

Average Weekly sales as of Week 20.

2022- 92k

2021- 125k

2020- 110k

2019- 63k

2018- 46k

2017- 43k

So this weeks sales are behind the curve even in its own year, and just above 2019.

So Switch is still tracking about 50% ahead of 2019, and double 2018. It may be passed its peak but it's still holding up remarkably well.

This is exactly the same data. Famitsu never gave any other number than the combined number for these two weeks.
