Considering that DQ Heroes, DQX, MHXX, USFII, Bomberman, Xenoverse 2 all did good than yes i would say these Mosou games prove nothing.

In case you didn't realize, DQH Switch and MHXX are the least-selling entries in their respective franchises, selling several times less than the original versions.

Well no shit, they are extremely late ports that cost more than the previous versions and on a significantly smaller install base, nobody in their right mind expected them to perform like brand new games.

The publishers of those games said they are happy with their performance on Switch.

Not disagreeing with MHXX but with DQH. I haven't heard from SE that they are satisfied with the sales of DQH unless you can show me any PR or statement that tell us otherwise.

They didnt said specifkly about DQH, but they did said they will "aggressively make games for Switch", I mean they would hardly said like that if they are not satisfied with sales.

I am not arguing about SE support. They already invested from the start regardless from the sales of their games to Switch and not because of DQH.
I am arguing if they are happy with DQH sales. 

Unless you can show me that they are happy with DQH sales specifically citing DQH sales.

Occultic 9 did OK by the looks of it. Sellthrough is definitely correct.

WO3U sold 2300 units, awful sellthrough. The 2 others are even worse, I wonder what KT thinks of that...
But we definitely need more data to ascertain 3rd party chances on Switch. When is Doom releasing in Japan?

If Dengeki is to be believed, the three entries sold through ~6700 units.

However, if we use the approximate ratio between Famistu sales tracking and Dengeki sales tracking...the three entries combined sold more or less ~5k.

Yeah, it's...bad.

People keep getting surprised by CoD sales, but its pretty much on par with top CoD games. CoD has sold well in Japan for years now, this isn't 2007.

I dont think they singled out that game but i recall them saying they are happy with their sales in general on Switch.

I wouldn't be surprised if Media Create reports no Xbox One Xs were sold for the 2017年11月13日～11月19日 week.
