According to VGChartz, XY did 630k FW in Europe. Soooo that basically doubled it!

This is beyond amazing. And I thought it would be much less in the UK!



Spectacular, I'm sure Pokemon Go had something to do with it. Of course the fact that it looks better than the 2 previous ones has helped too.

So 3.5m in 1st week just for Japan and Europe, so that basically means past 5m with US. :D



Sooo they pretty much sold out 50% of the initial 10M of shipments in the firts week ? sweet !



Amazing sales. I wonder how its sales will evolve with the Switch not being BC with 3DS, and with the possible Stars version coming soon.



You know it deserves the GOTY.
