When did the Pokémon and Smash bundles start? Because both are also selling in Japan (not so sure about the Fortnite bundle) and probably stealing some sales for November

On launch day of Pokemon, 16. November, so on same day launch of Pokemon Lets Go games, Pokemon Lets Go hardware bundles and Smash Bros hardware bundles, that week will be huge probably around 300k.

Some strange games having some really good legs. Conan, NBA2K, and Spiderman all doing pretty well.

HW isn't good at all though. Nintendo should be doing a bundle for holiday season and Sony (as we all have said) needs to drop the price big time.

Both major consoles droppign dangerously low below the established baseline for this year. At least Spiderman goes pretty well. And what else... wait! Undertale has a physical release in Japan? Why not here in europe? I'm envious.

There is a physical release by fangamer. From what I could find that is the only physical release for switch outside of japan. They ship international though. Not sure if they include import taxes in the shipping fee.



That's an extremely good hold for Spider-Man.

I get the impression that Sony isn't really trying to sell as many units as possible and is focusing on maximizing profit margins in Japan. And speaking about price cuts, the last time the PS4 got one was almost exactly 2 years ago.



Amazing for spiderman. Digital should be reasonably big too considering it's in short supply at retail. I'd guess it's over 300k and that's factoring in a digital ratio of about 30%.

Can somebody repost the code or screenshot it for the ps3 vscps4 comparison? Not loading for me. I can see the graph but not the underneath.

Nintendo Switch FC: SW-6340-7643-4233 aka Renji

Steam: Lee Roid

Of course Labo #3 does nothing, and from what I've heard that's supposed to be the best kit. Really don't see how it'll have a magical resurgence during the holidays. I'm also worried Super Mario Party wont do much either and that Switch sales will continue to lag until Pokemon.



Truly amazing Spider-Man sales, it had a fantastic hold  PS4 sales are still poor, lamentably.
