So far, it has had the best console launch ever in France, best Nintendo console launch ever in the US and Europe (for the first 2 days) and slightly behind the Wii in Japan (which is weird, since they were both supply constrained yet they managed to get more Wiis on shelves there while everywhere else is the opposite).

Switch did in 3 days in France what the PS4 did in 2 weeks.

It's a good start, should put any fears about it being a Wii U away (launching with a great game helps. Who knew?). Obviously long term is a different matter, but MK8D should move the needle next month when Switch should be on store shelves in all regions (restock is only 2 weeks away allegedly) and Splatoon 2 will be huge in Japan for the summer.

Then we just need a Direct or E3 announcements to fill in the gaps. Hopefully ARMS is good and fits in between MK8 and Mario somewhere.
