Here is a list of big sellers through out first year with some speculation!

 

Mar: Zelda 

Apr: Mario Kart 8

May: Minecraft (digital only)

June: ARMS

July: Splatoon 2

Aug: *Mario+Rabbits?

Sept: *Monster Hunter XX?

Oct: *Fire Emblem Warriors?

Nov: Super Mario Oddessy

Dec: Xenoblade Chronicles 2

Bruhhh, with Fire Emblem Switch/Animal Crossing/etc continuing? 

 

Thoughts?

2017 looks really good, that's reasonable.. the rest is just guessing at this point.

But to me, 2017 has looked good all along.



i agree. Add Animal crossing!



2017 alone could be an extraordinary year for Switch. We've already had two of the best games ever made in BoTW and MK8D. If Xenoblade 2 and Mario Odyssey are anything like their Wii counterparts it could be one of the best single years for a gaming system. And that's just year 1. It's one of many reasons I'm so bullish on Switch.



Region free boys
It's one of the best Year 1 lineups, period.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Agreed, Nintendo will be dominating Japan by the end of 2017, more so than they are already, although if Pokémon Stars does come out, it's likely a holiday title.



It does feel like that! Great way to start the Switch!



Pocky Lover Boy! 

Will any of those games reach Wii Sports/Wii Play/Wii Fit level of sales?



These last few titles that have trickled out (plus E3 reveals) add up to one of Nintendo's best ever. Should be interesting to see how long it takes for the Switch to top 3 million over there.
