Forums - Sales Discussion - Famitsu: Super Mario Odyssey sold 511,625 units within first three days in Japan

Glad i didn't post my HW expectations. I would have been waaaay off! :D

Really great to see Odyssey so well out of the gate!



Around the Network

Damn... I was expecting maybe 300k at retail and 50 k in downloads... but this way it might have doubled that. Absolutly stunning performance.



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

That's a much larger chunk of the Mario pie for Japan than i'd have assumed. SMO's success seems to be much more evenly distributed than either its predecessors or other Switch releases would have lead us to predict.



These numbers are sick.

So happy to see Nintendo back in full force and with all guns blazing.

Super Mario: Odyssey
Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Mario Kart 8: Deluxe
Splatoon 2

 

I believe we'll see Super Smash Bros and Donkey Kong in 2018.

Pokémon will be the game that'll make me buy a Switch (if I manage to wait that long).



Well, except if Nintendo has grossly underestimated their own sales, it looks like I've lost my bet. Congrats to Slarvax.



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

Amazing sales for SMO. Wasn't there someone here who kept saying that the game would have a 500K debut?

What the flamio! And it doesn't include digital sales? So, SMO is the biggest launch for any 3D Mario game ever. And it's mind-boggling how much of a push this has been for hardware, even bigger than on Splatoon 2's launch week (98k I think).

Can't wait for the official Media Create numbers :)

All according to keikaku.

OT: anyone got the highest opening for all Mario games (no spin-offs)?



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

That's some insane COMG ratio. It shows that Switch audience is more 1st party-oriented than ever.

This is not surprising. The company that makes the best titles deserves the best sales. It is almost like gamers appreciate quality software or something.

It’a still less than 60% of the software sold. It will probably go down soon though. 

You can find the ratio of 1st/3rd party game sales for all the nintendo consoles here:
