Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

PS4 at 79m. 80m in time for E3.



Mayday, mayday...Switch better start getting important software soon! Not a bad week for Switch but it's definitely suffering from not enough system sellers. Things should pick up real soon here hopefully.

I know. They had such great momentum last year too. They really f*cked up the first half of this year with nothing new but Kirby.

6 long weeks until the next game in Mario Tennis, but that should have an impact on hardware sales unlike Labo. Until then though, I'm scared to see how low the sales go. =(



As I expected God if War is keeping PS4 above 200K. Hopefully Detroit will ensure the same for the larger part of June.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

Europe once again the top selling region for the Switch. Interesting. ROTW also completely tanked for Switch this week. It's now back to where it was last year. PS4 ROTW also tanked this week interestingly enough.

Right. Last year's software output was almost unheard of.  But from January to now, it's been kind of underwhelming. It's understandable after a year like 2017 but it's kind of a bummer. Kirby wasn't even that long of a game either. Bayo 1 and 2...ports, DK...port. This is why I said Nintendo needs to hit this E3 out of the park.

lol, Labo did absolutely nothing for hardware sales. That was sad. But yeah, Mario Tennis is the next decent game coming to Switch and 6 weeks away...that's kind of a long wait. Sales will most likely continue to star above 100K, maybe at 100K at its worst. I was originally saying to wait for 2019 for Pokemon, but now I see why Nintendo wants to hold on so much to 2018.
