Cr*p hoped Zelda to be over 4m. Ah well, can't have everything. The over 100% attach-rate was also fun while it lasted. Don't know BotW WiiU sales, maybe that's in the documents, but I assume the game's total is 5m now. 

The Wii U version was at 1.08m as of the end of March, so the game is guaranteed over 5 million between both platforms.

You are right it was already that high. Good.

Checked the reports, but only mention sales of three Switch games, no BotW WiiU. Should have known, because onviously it didn't sell over a million this last quarter, but still. Hopefully it'll still be mentioned next March otherwise we'll never know how much it sold exactly.

pokemon SuMo seems to have slowed a bit? seems like it had a lot of momentum earlier

It seems that late Pokemon generations have better initial sales and worse legs. Still, SuMo has barely edged out B/W as of this quarter.

Likely due to the next games being announced so soon after, Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon are coming out in a few months.

On second thoughts, far out, 1.2 million for ARMS in two weeks is pretty freaking insane given its a new IP on a userbase of just 4.7 million.

That would make it Nintendo's fastest selling new IP since what, Wii Fit?

Probably, Splatoon 1 needed like 5 weeks to sell that on a bigger userbase, ARMS just 2 lol

In same time period 3DS done around 4.3m, while Wii U 10 months after launch still was under 4m.

One thing to note: 3DS shipped 3.61m in its first quarter, and only 0.71m in its second. At 1.96m, the Switch has almost 3 times the momentum in its second quarter.

That's great for the Switch, let's hope it keep its momentum throughout the next few years. I always get a strange feeling that Switch sales will be frontloaded, even more than Wii. I hope I was wrong.



A handheld gamer only (for now).

VGC is still missing three weeks to end of june for software and four for hardware. That explains most of the difference.

Yes I took that into account. Let's say it averages 65k for the remaining three weeks => 195k + 3,065k (vgchartz) = 3,26k. 

Nintendos number is at 3,92 - 3,26 = 660k

 

So then around 660k left for digital. 

 

Yes, kapi already pointed it oput, I was wrongly taking current momentum into account.

ARMS already over a million. Nice.

By the looks of it Splatoon 2 is likely a million seller as well.

Was there any doubt?

Wait, Arms sold 1.18 million copies in 15 days? Awesome! Is that including digital?

Your signature gets me every time

Arms indeed very impressive!! Switch killing it. Switch could get close to 7m by end of October which is excellent
