Yeap yeap Switch! Splat2 inkoming, cant wait intill july.
Zelda at 475k, lets gooo!



TheWPCTraveler on 19 April 2017

Switch outsold PS4 and 3DS despite having nothing to carry it? Wow. Though I am curious with what the 11k who didn't buy a game are doing with their Switches.

EDIT: They actually outsold the Switch by 74 units, combining all tracked hardware. Never mind.



 
I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

1-2 switch is selling?And apparently, people like it?



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

I think Japan is its best market and it's selling so-so ... about on par with Nintendo Land.

Why is the 3DS still going strong?

Also, digital, and because the hardware is limited, people buying games (zelda...) before the system.

Japan = Switch country.

Look it's already spanking the PS4 there like nobody's business.

Square-Enix is making a mistake by not having DQXI for Switch with the other two versions, especially this summer with Splatoon 2 coming.

The charts show only the top 20. There are going to be a few thousand additional sales for Switch games outside the top 20. The chart also only tracks retail sales, but games can also be bought digitally. Lastly, by know it's known that Switch isn't easy to get, so people buying it now in anticipation for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is reasonable too.

I am assuming the worst case scenario. Though, what other games are there? I doubt people are just magically picking up the Koei Tecmo re-releases, and D5 Complete and I am Setsuna aren't the kind of games to light even the back 30 on fire.

Assumption: DQ Heroes I+II sold ~2.5k.

Also, last week was the week of the Nintendo Direct, so that may have had an impact as well.
