Great thread.
We see big bumps on holidays for every game. But in different years.
But there are too many games in this holiday to divide the attention.
Só, I think mk8 and splatoon 2 will be below the wii U games curve for this holiday. But in the long run they will pass their predecessors.

Deluxe will definitely be.

Those who might benefit the most from the Holidays are BotW and Odyssey. Zelda still garners a lot of traction and Mario is the newest hot item.

1-2 Switch is now up. Since it's a new IP, I've compared it with Mario Party and Wii Party.

Sorry about the delay, I spent more time on the banner than they did on the game.



Figures updated to match the recent data adjustments happening around.



Nice thread.

Thank you! 



Around the Network

Figures are updated as of October 14th.

Mario Kart Wii and DS have been withdrawn, since I'm fairly certain they are out of reach for MK8DX. As of now, most Switch titles show trends of outperforming their Wii U counterpart, and even challenging the best-selling title in their respective IP. Especially BotW, ARMS, Splatoon 2. And yay, ARMS crosses the 1M mark.

Breath of the Wild pursues its astounding ascension and now enters the select 4M club which is home of some of the greatest achievements in the Zelda franchise, namely Wind Waker, LttP, OoT 3D and erm... Zelda II.

I can now state in all confidence that I do believe this title can hit the 10M mark, and successfully push the imaginary ceiling that has kept Zelda from fulfilling its destiny as one of the cornerstones of Nintendo's sales strategy and commercial onrush.

I would like to hear (read) your predictions about Mario Odyssey's first week WW. The update is just around the corner.



Good thread :)

Is there a chance to do a comparison of total software sales for Wii, Wii U and Switch?

Total software sales for Nintendo software only, or for all software? Might be tricky to find Nintendo-only numbers.

All retail software.

Switch now have only 16 mln software sold on VGC (I think this number is to low).

LTE for:

WiiU - 91,603,485

Wii - 912,710,695



Tagging. Will be interesting to follow



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
