Great! The Switch will have a 7m party too early next year!

So ps4 will finish 2018 still ahead of switch? That would go against a lot of people's predictions. 

If not this year, definitely early next year. There is your answer.

Ps4 having good sale. 7m party next week. Can't wait!

Switch will hit 5m in 3-4 weeks, so Switch probably wouldn't have any problem selling 2m more for 3.5 months after that, espacily when in October, November and December we have Mario Party, Pokemon, Smash Bros, Yo-kai Watch, Holiday shopping season and some other games.

Who knows, maybe we talk about this year, in Q4 Switch could sell around 3m.

that's the chart I like...

How wonder how high can switch go year-to-date with Smash and Pokemon.



Switch!!!

Famitsu has figures for Jake Hunter

Very interesting to see how this once Nintendo exclusive performs : the Switch version has a notably worse sellthrough, meaning that the fanbase was eager to play the series on PS hardware.

Bullet Girls Phantasia is in line with the previous one, probably a bit higher thanks to PS4 digital (and much higher thanks to Asian English version). Funny it outsold the two last NIS games PS4+Switch combined...

Switch still doing greatly and the poor PS4 at least could go above 20k. Octopus Traveler getting closer and closer to 200k and Captain Kinopio almost reaches 100k. MK8 DX definitely ended up having better legs than Zelda BotW and Mario Odyssey (though I guess that's not surprising).

Meaning the Switch audience had so much else to play.

I never noticed it before but he and monama are 1 in the samr person. Just replace class 1A and 1B with Nintendo and Sony

Dunno what you're trying to say, but let's not ruin MHA.

He is stating that Ryuzaki and Monoma (Copy Ability Guy from Class 1B) are the same, because the generally nit pick the smallest thing to make their side sound better Class 1-B (Sony), even when Class 1-A (Nintendo) is killing it otherwise. 

Regardless the moderators were on top of things, so it really doesn't matter.

Switch has a 50k baseline now which is pretty good.
I would really like it if SE had actually put out a big restock for Octopath, but looks like that ain't happenin'.
Breath of the Wild looks like it i'll become the best selling Zelda game in Japan with these legs.
