He's basing that on revenue.

Excellent for Sony and Nintendo.

So happy that the Switch is doing well in North America and also dominating the competition in Japan. Easily my favorite console in a very long time.

Could someone summarize what went down in this thread for me? Thanks.

We had a leak and instead of thanking said leaker for the numbers we crave every month people decided to go against his wishes with the numbers and argue with him and give their unwanted opinion. So we likely wont see anymore leaks for a while which is a damn shame.

Huh... Seems sort of minor. Thanks for the info! :)

Great for Nintendo, its impresive to see that Switch has 3 games in top 10 best selling games in US.

I think Destiny 2 is going to have less of an impact than the first if there isn't a slim bundle to go with that too expensive pro bundle. Even with a slim bundle, no way it gets to 538k, but it would likely be up yoy by quite a bit.

Dont't want to read all the posts in this thread. Could just somebody answer my question if Crash Bandicoot numbers have already been posted or will be posted soon?

All thats been posted so far is that it's physical + digital sales came second between Splatoon 2's physical only sales at first and GTA V physical + digital sales at 3rd, I think.

Thanks shadow, that is very much appreciated. It's quite incredible that it managed to have an increase so far in cumulative this year considering that the previous 2 years where dipping below the year previous by the mid of the year (even though they had started better, and it inverted the order this year). It'll be a hard battle but as you said it's possible with 3 strong SW, I hope GT Sport return the strenght of the franchise and that Destiny haven't lost most of its appeal. On UC LL I don't think it will push much, but as a game I'll certainly play it.

Considering previous years HW sales and what SW pushed that, what would be your month forecast for the next 3?
