Honest question; why are Nintendo having issues keeping up with demand? Sony and Microsoft didn't have this problem, or at least not as bad, did they?
Then they are really fools if they are unable to produce and ship more than 300k consoles a month in the US.
Sure, but I was more curious of how many they could ship.
Probably 280,004.more than 280,000 units sold? Imagine how much more they will have sold if they didn't have any artificial scarcity at all.
Is your friend called Shiggy on GAF?
Sony and Microsoft didn't do a simultaneous worldwide launch, specially Microsoft who only launched the X1 in a few countries on it's first year.Honest question; why are Nintendo having issues keeping up with demand? Sony and Microsoft didn't have this problem, or at least not as bad, did they?
Stock is shit. I still cant find one. They are sold out everywhere.
Edit: Before people start ragging on me, I realize they are coming off the WiiU which was the biggest bomb ever, Im just saying.

Yeah...but WiiU didnt launch with Zelda and had Mario Kart 2 months in. They really underestimated the impact of their first party offerings this time.
This Holiday season will be crazy.
This has nothing to do with the issue at hand - Sony and ;MS consoles had shortages in the past after launch.
Two days. The cutoff point was the 29th.How many days?
How many days?

I think two days.

Why are people (who visit a GAF on a daily basis no less) pretending like they don't know switch only sold 280k because it is still supply constrained?
If they have nothing megaton-esque by the end of summer, I can see them getting overtaken for the fall season before Mario Odyssey.Nintendo seem to have a winning formula on their hands with the Switch, I wonder how long the momentum can carry on and when the PS4 will beat it for the tops sales of the month?

I predicted 410K, I was so wrong...Most of GAF predicted 400k+ for April.
Bomba confirmed
About 4 less.That dorsnt make sense, gaf told me artificial scarcity is gow you make more sales! Imagine how much less they would sell without it
March 906k
April 280k (626k decline)
By my math, if this 626k decline trend continues the Switch will sell -346k units in May (scalpers returning them due to no demand, of course)
March 906k
April 280k (69% decline)
If trend continues
May 87k units
And that is even possible, if the stock situation is worse than April
Also Zelda was third for the month. Wonder what it's attach rate was this time.

They couldn't possibly be that bad with stock..could they?March 906k

terrible numbers? They have sold everything they have in stock, the only reason why it is not higher is due to stock issues

It would not, this would be under the assumption that Nintendo actually stopped shipping out switches for May to stockpile for June. A more likely scenario is that we'll see a repeat of April before we see whatever manufacturing changes they prepared for June.They couldn't possibly be that bad with stock..could they?
