Splat2 vs DQ11

Splatoon2: 1.460mil
DQ(ps4): 1.383mil
DQ(3ds): 1.777mil
DQ(Com): 3.158mil


Splat2 losing by...

Ps4: BEATEN!
3ds: 327k
DQ: 1.650mil

With those great legs of splatoon it might just beat out 3ds dragon quest which is insane to think about. When will DQ Switch come squeenix?



Just a guy who doesn't want to be bored. Also

Next week sales for the PS4 will be interesting that will be the determining factor if it will be up or down YTD for Media-Create. It's possible it will be on 50k-60K range for the PS4 next week.

Week 49 2016 - 92,717
week 49 2017 - 85,687

Week 50 2015- 38,497

Week 51 2017 -???

Week 52 2015 - 53,023 
Week 52 2016 - 83,337

What about Week 53? Or was that Famitsu.

Nintendo is sending more stock to the west. Most likely because competition over there. Japan is a lock and will continue to sell out at least for a couple more months there.

I realize this, but it only makes me more disappointed - imagining how high the numbers could be.

Eh, Switch is ok, but should be doing 300k+ by now.

Oh cmon bro.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Should be doing 500k+

I think we’ll see an anomaly next year if Nintendo manages to keep sending this amount to stores. I mean, we might see lots of 100k+ weeks next year even out of holidays and big launches.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Famitsu has Switch at 193,717 units for the week.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Pretty good for Kiwami2, I do expect strong digital sales to make up for the lack of PS3 version this time.
Excellent for EDF5, especially given Iron Rain was announced already. D3 must be partying hard.

Very good 2nd week for Xeno2. The road to 200K is all open with digital. No doubt it will outsell Sen no Kiseki III now, which leads to 2 conclusions :
- Falcom needs Vita versions of their games.
- Sony absolutely needs a Vita successor to face Switch in Japan.

Usual gloom for Switch 3rd parties. Nobunaga held on PS4 and not on Switch + RE has zero legs. Sumikko Switch starts low but can still pick up during the month.

Dont cherry pick, look at Dragon ball z XV2 for example



Great ps4 sales. Not bad switch sales. Its the holidays so switch should be doing well over 200k. Hopefully it will for the next few weeks

Wouldnt the logical conclusion be Switch versions, not Vita versions?Its just strange that you start the sentence with XC 2, and ends concluding with a Vita version due to the success of XC 2.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
