Fifa 18 for Switch keep selling well! May it can sell the same as ps4 version (~78k)
It's a record for the franchise in Japan?

Ps4 this year and last year holds the record. Obviously higher with its digital sales. And that's with competition from pro evo. 

I was asking about a record of physical sales, in Japan, on a Nintendo's platform.

Hiska-San just updated the glorious ps4 vs ps3 comparison. Ps4 pulling ahead easily now and it's biggest ever title mhw is yet to come. It's still the only console up on it's previous gens console(s) since the Wii and xbox 360.

 

It has it be said it's performing very well for a traditional home console. 

 



great for Nintendo and still good for Sony.

saw numbers that SMO is the best Mario to date compared to Galaxy, 64 DS, Sunshine, 3D World, 3D Land. Japan just really like handhelds hence it got the 1M mark. If it is on the WiiU it might just sell half of it like the other great 3D Mario games.

More clarification is required. It seems you may be missing some data.

I think he meant that PS4 is the only home console that is up compared to its predecessors, since Wii U failed and Switch is not exactly a traditional home console like PS4. As for Xbox One... Well, probably it will never reach X360 sales.

Well even if you just compared switch to the 3ds without including the Wii u its not up so my statement is correct. Ps4 is bucking the trend.

Can you imagine if a core Pokemon game comes out for the Switch in 2018?

Tsutaya ranking for the past week is up

Atelier LS is not performing well in sales : only PS4 version charts and not so high on the top of that. I'm not forecasting better numbers than NoA2 this summer. Hard times for Gust.

It's both though. The Switch as a portable is down but as a home console it's up. You can't just say Oh but even if you just compare ot to 3ds & it's down.

The switch is only like, a week behind 3ds. And its doing that at its lauch pricepoint while the 3DS had a massive price drop.

Funny you say like the 3ds is a low bar. In the current age of mobile, 3ds pretty much reached near the potential cap of a portable in japan. There is a 3ds for every 4 people in japan.

If it's both then as a hybrid it's not up.
