A nice recovery for the Switch

Last week there was a glitch in the Nintendo Matrix, glad to see balance has been restored to the universe!

Respectable Switch numbers, but I was expecting a bit more, honestly. I'm assuming Switch shortages still persist in Japan?

Splatoon 3 still shows not signs of slowing down.

For how old the system is, the Switch is strong. I still think 2024 for a Switch 2. Sales are too good to rush out new hardware.

The worst case scenario maybe was Holliday 2023.
