WiiU sold out at launch too. The launch sales aren’t nearly as important as the holiday sales and beyond for the health of the generation. Now that all the hardcore fans bought a switch 2. Are the families with switch lites gonna buy it? The casual gamers who only play Mario kart and already have switch 1 and mk8dx gonna buy it?

I mean, even at launch, the Wii U's numbers were sluggish, and the Wii U launched during the holidays. It's very early, and there could be a huge drop off, but this doesn't appear to be a Wii U situation.
