This is even more impressive when you consider that this game just released, like three weeks ago, on the Switch.

Also, saying that any game would sell well on the Switch due to lack of other games is somehow flawed because then we would see amazing sales of stuff like Vroom in the Night Sky. Quality and appeal makes games sell, not lack of competition. Nobody buys shit because there's noting else to buy. You rather don't buy anything at all.

That's the third time I see you saying this just today.

Yes, you wanted something new to play, and yet you chose Wonder Boy. Why? I guess you're a person who seeks some information about something before a purchase. Exposure? Because it sparked interest in you? Becaue it looked like fun?

Or was it because everything else you saw was pure shit? Why did you pick this game over Vroom in the Night Sky?

Reading the replies, it seems more like we need a Nintendoom thread about sales. Great sales on switch = small library and desperate owners buying anything.

Yea I agree. Sonic Mania for example, while not exactly indie, just screams handheld. Beyond the game having that nostalgic factor of being similar in design to old games, playing on the switch adds another layer of nostalgia by having a handheld sonic game. Makes one think they are playing on the sega gamegear.

So many feels.
