Switch shortages or just lower demand right now?

Shortages. They are likely stockpiling for the Pokémon OLED in a few weeks.

Also, MK8Dx seems like it will get past 5M physical sales in Japan by end of the year.

Smash will also cross 5 million in just another 2 weeks.

To the privileged, equality feels like oppression.

I think Switch being down has more to do with people waiting for Pokémon, coupled with Splatoon 3 boost wearing off, than shortages considering all Switch SKU's are down from last week.

Most consoles would be happy if they had only one game passing that threshold, Switch could end up with about half a dozen managing that, crazy!

It's all due to shortages, nsw hasn't been this low at all this year. It's also also pokemon launch as well as holiday so Nintendo could be stock piling.

Splatoon still selling a big number and nsw never was less than 52k this year. 43k is steep drop so shortages it is (and can see by reseller prices/etc)

Ouch. This is the first week that Switch is below 50k in this year. That came a bit unexpected. Splatoon 3 hype train is clearly over, despite the game is still on #1.
