Last week some people told me that I would regret my thoughts....Well, things are even worse than I expected.

We are seeing a 1/1,2 Millions worldwide for MM2....It is weak, Odysee got more than 2M in 3 days and the install base was 8 millions, it is 3,5x more today.

But I still trust the game for legs, it will get 10M certainly.

But now what I was saying gets confirmed : to just recover the same pace as last year, the Switch needs a price cut of 45€ (basically it was MM2 included with the console for those who decided to buy the Switch in Japan), AND the release of one of the 3 10 millions seller of 2019. There was 4, but Animal Crossing is now for 2020.

I am not afraid for 2019-2020, there is a massive load of strong games (1-5 millions sellers), and with the 2 new models coming soon we might see regular week at 450K or more for the Switch, but definitely, the initial Switch with its initial price level is declining. It needs now strong boosters to keep the momentum.

Are you saying that MM2 will have a sell through of 1.2 in the first week? Because that’s hard to believe. Odyssey is an outlier, Mario games tend to not be front loaded, and instead a slow burner. The switch is up Yoy for the week so I don’t get what you mean 

The Switch is up by a modest 8000, with the release of one of the 3 main strike of the year, + a 5000 yen discount, vs last year with nothing big at the same moment.
