A baseball game gave ps4 a 20k boost. Kirby gave switch a 10k boost? And labo didn't give switch a boost at all



Around the Network

Sony must have gotten more stock this week...... to do more than 35k.



It feels very strange to see no 3DS game charting.



Like I said last week. Without supply issue ps4 would be selling 25-30k. Switch around 35-40k.

Kirby isn’t a exactly a system seller and Labo is a new ip.

Well see after golden week.



If kirby isnt a system seller( even though it sold over 300k fw) then that baseball game isn't really a system seller either.



PS4 scarcity well and truly over and what a good bump......next 2 weeks will confirm if it holds significantly or goes back to form.
Labo a tad disappointing and great hold for GoW.

So PS4 supply issue is fixed and this is the max extent it can go? Still below Switch, which seems to be around 40k. When is golden week btw?

How do you know it’s fixed?

The PS4 got a bump to the baseball game nothing to do with the fake shortage excuse.

Yeah, right. Always a pleasure to read insights from people knowing the Japanese market so well.

 

Are you still celebrating because Labo sold better than God of War? On the launch week only...
