Is there a mind share shift going in Japan now? Nintendo may have waited too long. Having said that, one big game probably puts them back on the weekly charts.
Hardware sales is still good for a system nearing 6 years lifetime on the market.
Another thing to keep in mind is the software domination of Switch.
