No numbers makes for boring npd threads. :(

Can't believe that guy did that.

Switch top10 from GAF

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1433470

Switch:
Splatoon 2*
Mario Kart 8*
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild*
ARMS*
1-2 Switch*
Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers*
Just Dance 2017*
Lego City Undercover*
Cars 3: Driven to Win*
Minecraft: Story Mode The Complete Adventure*

Fate Extella didn't hold, while Cars 3 did. Safe to say that Switch audience wasn't interested and that it didn't pass Marvelous's test. Further information on Fate Extella Link should enlighten us.

Those damn Switchers

There is only one thing that bests describes Ethomaz, and the hint is a quote from Carl2291 from the last NPD thread.



Proud to be a Californian.

1. They could be doing that. We don't know if the person that is leaking the numbers truly has direct access or is being used as an intermediary.

2. The leaker specifically said don't take these numbers and post them directly to NeoGAF. So anyone that did so was just being a dick.

Yes people on the internet are pricks. Instead focusing on the people that are taking the risk to post NPD numbers, we should focus our disdain on the assholes that help get the leakers exposed. The internet didn't used to be full jerks. People used to be called out or even shunned for bad behavior. Maybe if that were still the case, there would less jerks around. Sure there is always going to be that one guy/girl. However letting people slide just encourages more people to be inconsiderate douchebags. 

The same discussion as last month.

So please entertain us on why the person who is not following the wishes of someone that is breaking his contract is worse than someone that is really breaking his contract. Without using the "but if he didn't break we wouldn't get the numbers".

Also explain how NeoGaf being so much bigger and this being the internet the numbers wouldn't get there at one time or another.

The own leaker then admitted that he knew it would but hoped it would take 1 or 2 days instead of hours.

This idiotic discussion seems just like people that rip Manga, Anime, Series, etc, subtitle and ask others not to take the credit. They guy is robbing others IP, doing his translation because he wants and think he can be pissed that someone is doing the same to him.

The release of numbers is in between the leaker and the NPD. If a cop pulls me over for speeding and decides to give me a warning. I'm not going to say "Hey the law demands you write me that ticket". I'm going to be thankful for warning.

It was nice having those NPD #'s for a spell. Ah, well. Back to my GribbleGrunger vigil.

You can all thank Ethomaz for the lack of leaks this month.

It was inevitable that the leak got fully posted on GAF. It's Internet. The leaker was just naive enough to think his own set of rules could be applied on the whole planet. 

- Hey I am going to post it here but if you want the leak to continue I ORDER you not to post this on GAF. Hey we are all adult on Internet and I declare that you will all obey me OR I WONT leak the next months !

This approach was naive and was doomed to fail. And I think I recognize who might have this sort of reasoning...

Can you show me the flying colors with which PS4/V owners passed the test in Jan & Feb NPD results?

Of course.

This is an article on Fate Extella Link featured in the latest Dengeki Playstation, proving that the sequel is at least for PS4.

Therefore, PS4 sales at least were satisfying
