NPD numbers leaked, Switch's 2019 numbers have been adjusted down. VGC did have Switch at 20.21m for 2019, but it's now been changed to 19.86m.

Barkley, what were the numbers? I haven't seen them, I'd like to know what the monthly breakdown was. 19.86 mil is still crazy good. Vgchartz was damn close.
