I predicted 60k for Arms, so I'm surprised! According to Famitsu it did 120k, but on MC it's at 100k, so let's say it did 110k.

I don't think it will have great legs in Japan, but I'm sure it will do even better in US. First week (worldwide) should be 300k (130k US / 110k Japan / 60k EU + RoW) , which is pretty good for a new IP... and a fighter while a that. :o



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Solid release for Arms, and a nice mini-boost for Switch sales

Dire stock situation for Switch. Nintendo really needs to get this sorted before Splatoon, not during or after.

ARMS ended up not doing too badly. Other sites certainly made this seem to be a possibility.



The Nintendo Trinity of Hardware

A) Good Launch Titles
B) Good Hardware Concept
C) Adequate Hardware Supply

You can only have 2 of the 3, never all 3, lol.

In my opinion, it's not very impressive for what is supposed to be the Switch's big game in almost 2 months.

Imo if ARMS sold 1mil fw it still wouldn't have been very impressive to you. Lets be honest here... Why even post such a comment?

Because that's what I think. There's 1M switches in Japan with not much having been released since Mario Kart 8 on the 28th of April.

10% of the userbase bought the game in 2 days...

At this point I just can't believe someone is THAT blind honestly.

In 2 days, you say? So the numbers will go up next week after 7 days of sales? And you realise it's the first big game in close to 2 months?



Good sales for Arms. Zelda on Switch passed 500k, yeeeesssss.
Surprised that Ys is holding so well.

And you realize this is a new IP on a low userbase? The game performed well, deal with it for once in your life and have some dignity.

Which, despite being released 50 days ago, is still able to constatly be on top 5 and sell well. Let's not forget Zelda, which is still having legs. Meaning... those 2 games are still very relevant (and not old at all). 

Tekken 7 was the first big game PS4 got in Japan after many weeks too and it didn't to well... all of that despite being probably the world's biggest fighting franchise. 

Just deal with it for once.
