Standard PS4 sales. Expected. Switch is on the baseline or approaching it. Software is overal low. Even Dark Souls remastered is lower than I imagined. I thought it would do at least 100k.

Another slow summer week. Switch is doing pretty good with its evergreen titles and decent hardware sales, it's going to cross 1 million units sold in 2018 next week.

Is the Mega Man Classic Collection a Switch only release?

It was a late port I think.

That's what I figured. The X Collection is gonna be a multiplatform release though, right?

Yes, on PS4 and Switch in Japan

Yep, will be interesting to see how they do compared to each other.

My guess is that the Switch version will be the highest seller. It's a given in Japan but I think it'll be the same worldwide too.

Only positive thing is that slight Switch bump. I think the PS4 scarcity and its assumed effect on the baseline can now be well and truly laid to rest. What the PS4 is doing currently is basically what it is capable of if it barely moved with no noticeable scarcity and 3 new releases topping the SW charts. The PS4 is still up YTD though so still has some life left in it I guess.
Will be interesting to see how close to that Dark souls figures for PS4 that the switch version comes.

I thought DS was an obligatory 100K. (COMG numbers might be not has insightful as I thought)

Anywoo, Switch sales are increasing and Kirby is still alive and kicking :D

COMG was pretty spot on though. It had 64+15 pts. 53,000 ¥ premium boxes don't add much to the total though. So 64 or 79 pts for a good ratio becomes 74k, right down the middle.

More specifically the 64 became 71k and the 15 became 3k.
