Pretty poor from Super Robot Wars X there, sadly. Series needs a shake-up

Well let's hope its supply or else it's doomed. RolStoppable reply to you makes sense though. |
Random but welcome back!

Not only that, but Switch isn't a handheld. It's a hybrid. Whether Switch is labeled a home console or handheld depends on convenience, be it a pro-Nintendo or an anti-Nintendo argument. What you quoted is an anti-Nintendo argument, so Switch is called a handheld to make its sales seem disappointing. But the reality is that Switch is a hybrid, so while it is a portable console, it also costs far more than a typical handheld. In a launch-aligned comparison, the 30,000 yen Switch did comfortably beat the 25,000 yen 3DS; at the current point in time the 3DS is selling notably better, but it's 30,000 yen Switch vs. 15,000 yen 3DS. Obviously, the price of the system wasn't a barrier for the 3DS at this point in its life anymore while for the Switch it still is. Switch has yet to get into the price range where it gains full access to the handheld market.
It seems to be a case of "We do not care enough." on Sony's part. The hardware boost from Monster Hunter World was underestimated, but at the same time it hasn't been big enough to justify adjustments in the chain of logistics (in Sony's eyes). The normally scheduled shipments were expected to sort out all shortages, but it hasn't happened yet. Since it's looking like a matter of only a few thousand units more that could be sold each week, it's unlikely that Sony will take action and instead stay course of expecting the shortages to eventually resolve themselves over time. |
Great replys on both accounts
Yikes, those PS4 sales are terrible. Switch sales are OK, but hopefully the baseline will improve when games like Yokai Watch 4, Super Smash Bros. for Switch and Pokémon release.

Well, COMG and nothing = the same.
Aokana Four Rhythm Across the Blue made 21 points @ COMG and sales the first day was ... 2140 in Dengeki.
At COMG, 18/20 games are for PS platforms. However, Media Create shows that games from 12/8 to 15/5 are from the Nintendo's platform. Weekly.
Yeah, the thread is nice and so. But not. Best not to use as a parameter

Japan DC+PS2+GBA+GC+XB-~47 million DS+PSP+360+Wii+PS3=~78 million 3DS+Vita+Wii U+PS4+XBO=~40 million
Gen 8 consoles are still selling and when all is said and done will be very close to 6th gen totals. Its the same worldwide
Worldwide Gen 6-~290 million Gen 7-~510 million Gen 8-~215 million
Overall it seems like gen 7 was a massive increase over the previous generation and gen 8 has returned back to gen 6 levels.
It will be interesting to see how NSW+PS5+XB4 perform, will we see a further drop, new growth or stability? |
Market increase ou decrease? That`s the good question.
Right, Nintendo has evergreens. That has nothing to do with their roster of games in the near future so I have zero idea why you brought that up. COMG has to do with preorders for new games, not the 4-5 games that people buy when they get a Switch. For preorders Nintendo has Labo and Snack World.
Whatever the reason is, PS4 sales are simply bas this week.Hope that it either get resolved if its supply related, otherwise ouch.
Switch is also a bit on the dissapointment side.Hoped for a number thats a bit bigger, but its not bad by any means.
As for software, they all seem to be selling well, the usual suspects.Happy for it!Just hoped that XC 2 appeared on the charts again, but it already did extremely well, so im not concerned.
My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Like i said, COMG preorders have always favored PS consoles.
