StarDoor on 23 August 2017

Oh. So the stock problems weren't solved after all.



Miyamotoo on 23 August 2017

Damn that Switch drop, I hope this will not last.
Next week is Monster Hunter XX launch, so hopely Nintendo will have more units available for that week.



Nautilus on 23 August 2017

Now this week is just plain weird.Did the Switch stock just jump off of a cliff?I would guess is in preparation to next week(MH week with the MH bundle) but thats just too low.

Outside of that, software sales seems good.DQ and Splatoon are holding well, and Switch software also seem healthy.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

wait what..... 35k PS4's to 22k Switches?

Nintendo get your stock issues under controll already ; _ ;

Ouch that Switch Drop......



lonerism on 23 August 2017

LMAO, that Switch drop

PS4 on top baby, PS4 DQ XI  keeping up with the 3DS version!! nice :)



NoCtiS_NoX on 23 August 2017

Nice 4th week for DQXI.
PS4 DQ might be already over 1.5 Million with DD sales.
Next will be 3 Million at retail.

Switch Drop is LMAO! Ninty really need to sort this out.

And PS4 no. 1 if my math is right?



Nuvendil on 23 August 2017

Bizarre Switch drop but also makes sense in the context of the surge in Western stock. Seems Nintendo did a staggered push, focusing on Japan wjth the Splatoon launch and then shifting back towards the West as that initial storm subsided. If my guess is correct, things should even out over the next few weeks. Also, probably some hold back for MonHun since it has bundles.
