Apple “klaut” Nintendo die Switch Bauteile..? 
– Nintendo has told suppliers and assemblers it hopes to make nearly 20 million Switch units by the end of this fiscal year
– there’s an industry-wide capacity shortage for components used in smartphones, computer servers and other tech
– this includes NAND flash-memory chips that store data, liquid-crystal displays and the motors that enable HD Rumble
– rapid expansion of web-based services for corporations has driven demand for computer servers that use flash memor
– continued demand for Apple’s iPhone line will also put a strain on components
– makers of data-center servers tend to use newer and higher-margin components
– smartphone makers issue larger orders
– this makes it hard for Nintendo to secure components they need
– if Nintendo increased spending significantly to secure more parts, that could risk driving the Switch’s production cost up
– Nintendo may again consider air cargo shipping toward the end of the year, some sources said
