Switch doing very well still. I think it could easily be over 200k this month.

Im going with 450k+

Oh, I didn't know. That'll save me some extra work!

No problem thanks for the hardwork!



Edit:  Must've hit the wrong link when I was on my phone.

What happened to Horizon on the yearlies--down to #30? Wasn't it in the top 5 not long ago? And some of the things ahead of it make it seem even more odd: Puyopuyo, kingdom hearts 1.5/2.5, and splatoon 2.

The only game with a chance to outsell horizon would be splatoon 2, but that isn't even out until July. Just seems odd.

it likely did 200k in Japan this month, US should be over 300k.

That's too high. April is not going to benefit from the announced increase for Switch production, so there are probably only ~750k units to sell around the world. The USA are not going to get more than 50% of that volume, but rather only ~300k units.

Of course I am only guessing how many units Nintendo will ship, but I doubt that production was originally planned to be 1m or more per month during spring/summer. I don't expect an increase in production to materialize before July, because the logistics are more complicated than that.

Japan-200k

USA-300k

Europe-200k

Rest of World-50k

I could see something like this.
