So including the Wii U version, Breath of the Wild is over 5 million.

Strong opening for ARMS too, nice to see a new IP (and one that focuses on motion controls to boot) doing well.



Around the Network

Expected a little more from the Switch, so I'm a little bummed by those numbers, especially since VGC has 4.26 million as of June 3rd vs. Nintendo's 4.70 million as of June 30th, hinting towards slight overtracking, but oh well.
At least the 3DS makes up for it. Nintendo has 67.08 million as of June 30th, VGC has 64.9 million as of June 3rd. So, that is slightly undertracked it would seem.

Now, as for the software side of things.
I am very pleased to see Breath of the Wild doing the numbers it's doing, and is the biggest positive of these latest figures.
For comparison's sake, the Wii version of Twilight Princess did 4,113,705 units from launch to the end of December 2007 - 13 months worth of data. The Switch version of Breath of the Wild is at 3.92 with a little under 4 months of data. This is on track to comfortably and easily become the best selling Zelda game of all-time and the first game in the series to crack 10 million. Hopefully it keeps the momentum going!
Mario Kart did extremely well, but it's Mario Kart, so I expected nothing less.
1-2 Switch at over 1 million is sure to displease a number of people, but I digress.
ARMS cracking 1 million within its first month is quite impressive for a new IP.
Pokemon Sun/Moon continues to grow, I expect that to eclipse X/Y as the best selling 3DS game, and I expect Mario Kart 7 to catch it as well.



If I look at the numbers and four weeks missing on VGC to match this it seems...
Switch is a bit overtracked, maybe 100K.
Mario Kart is a bit undertracked, maybe 50K.
1-2-Switch is undertracked a lot, around 400-500K.

my greatest games: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023

10 years greatest game event!

bets: [peak year] [+], [1], [2], [3], [4]

Considering 2.74 units were shipped until the last of march. Not sure how anyone could honestly expect much more than this when it is as supply constrained as is. 2 million units from april 1-june 30 those are really great numbers overall.

Is 1-2 Switch a title mostly bought digitally? 400-500k is a lot to undertrack.

Also, did they say the Splatoon 2 sales?



You know it deserves the GOTY.
