Good boost from odyssey, wonder how much it will stay up next week too.



I expected the US to have better Switch numbers TBH. I thought Mario would boost the Switch more in the US than in Japan, but since supply still hasn't met demand there, I guess that point is moot..?

Anyways I thought it would do around 150k in the US and around 400k global but, it's done great numbers regardless.

And even then, the WW gap this week is about half of what the gap was last week.

Well, even with our differences, we can all agree in one thing: both consoles are doing great.

Also, and I don't mean to be rude, some people tend to forget that Nintendo has another platform which is doing fine. So the amount of Nintendo hardware sold this week was about 500k.

But, well, in the end what matters is that the console market is now in a pretty healthy position. 

Yeah, a few years ago if you (not you personally, just general you) bought into the fear mongering about mobile, you´d think this time we´re in now, in 2017, we´d have no choice but play everything on mobile because it´d totally obliterate dedicated gaming hardware.



Wow, the updates are getting faster, the hardware charts are one month behind...hope they will updated once it was, and thanks to the people who are working hard to make this possible;)

This really makes me happy about the Switch. PS4 was doing great and would surely sell more than any of last gen consoles, but even if it does 130M it wouldn't offset the small decrease from 360 to X1 plus the huuuuge decrease between both Wii consoles. This gen would most likely end up way below the previous one. With Nintendo doing great again I think it's quite reasonable that we can see this gen beating the previous one.

Handhelds will still show a sharp decrease, but smartphones killed those with nuclear fire.



More numbers and wow the Switch killed it and the PS4 still on fire! CRAZY STUFF!!!!

For me the notable thing is xbox finally ducked under its 30% marketshare milestone, it's only downhill from here folks.

Only 600,000 away from 66.6 for ps4, nice

And only 3,000,000 away from 69. Nice.



NS first again, thanks to Mario. Very good week overall.
