tfw people still thought Switch was gonna bomb despite Pokémon and Smash not being out yet

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Still hesitating between the Switch and the PSVR as a Christmas gift, but as a fan of the 1st gen, Detective Pikachu (made me want more Pokemon) and Let's Go might push me to choose the Switch...

I always said that Let's go would be very successful and even got pretty angry answers saying that "Pokémon spin off don't sell, no-one asked for that"...

Well.. there you go folks. Whatever you want to say about Let's Go or the series in general, the games are given favorable reviews and are selling really well so far. Congrats to Game Freak, Pokemon Company, Creatures Inc., and Nintendo.

It think it will do better than Let's Go, but I don't know how much better it will do.

Very similar numbers to God of war. Yeah just checked it, GOW sold 3.1m to consumers after 3 days and this did 3m shipped after 3. So both in the same ball park.
