God of War is already being outsold by Kirby.

Nope. God of War is 1.5 million copies ahead of Kirby.

I feel like almost every Switch port is selling well, except for Hyrule Warriors. I had expected it to sell much more, thanks to the massive amount of content and Zelda franchise boost from BoTW.

Hyrule Warriors is a great game, but it's possibly the one game that is better on the Wii U.  The gamepad makes the 2-player mode ideal.

I do miss the gamepad for games like this. But the framerate and enemy spawning is so much better on Switch. Also, to have all the content that the Wii U missed (which is probably close to 40%), is such a good deal. It is clearly the definitive version and I wish it had the Switch like boost that other titles have been getting.

Hmm...I didn't realize the Switch version had that much extra content.  Dammit, now that is another Switch game I need to buy.  Not sure when I'm going to find the time to play all of these, especially when there are still games in this week's top 8 that I haven't gotten to yet.  



curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.

Top 8 wow... Imagine once you add the actual best seller Nintendo franchise. Zelda and 3D Mario is selling like half of what Smash, Pokemon and animal crossing can do.
I'm kinda disappointed in Wolfenstein II on switch tho.. hope they cut the price or something cause it seems to have poor legs.

Yeah, it's crazy. It has 5 more adventure maps that the Wii U version never received. I sunk in over 300 hours on the Wii U version and never thought I'd be so excited to start all over. The wife and I have put in over 100 hours on the Switch version. If you are a completionist, this will take a long time lol. 

Granted, the only exclusive content to come to the Switch version are the Breath of the Wild costumes for Zelda (who looks amazing) and Link. Everything else was on the 3DS with the season pass. But I'm assuming not many people really were able to have the full experience on the inferior version haha.

Was this the title that was only like 20% completed when it released on the other systems? 

I couldn't even follow the ball when I watched videos online... And to release after Mario Tennis lol.

erm... didn't Shining Resonance Refrain launch on PS4 and Xbox One as well?

Not sure how accurate, but VGchartz has the PS4 version releasing September 25th this year.

http://www.vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=221174

Just checked Amazon, and it has a release concurrent with the Switch. So it's likely the PS4 version got skipped in this chart since the release date for it was incorrect.
