Neither did I, and we are both writers! I am doubting this... lol

It's true, there was an announcement thread a couple weeks ago.

Wasn't that the one where they announced that they would be changing where they get their numbers from? I don't recall anyone saying they'd stop altogether.

Right now I'd guess 3-4m like almost everyone else but if it's reviewed well (84+ metacritic) or seems like a step up from Woolly World then I'd guess 4-5m.

I'm gonna go with 3-4 million. If Woolly World can sell 1.55 million on the Wii U, I think the Switch Factor plus this looking like a more interesting game can at least double that.

How much do you think the game will sell lifetime, and what's your reasoning?

EDIT: Crap, just realized, does the fact VGC will no longer track software after 2018 mean we'll never really know?

What?! When was this announced? I had no idea VGC was going to stop tracking software... Why?

3-4. im optimistic

I think 3-4 million is a very reasonable estimate. First-party titles are selling really well on Switch. Just because a game isn't Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, Smash, or Animal Crossing doesn't mean it can't nab at least a few million. Plus Yoshi's Woolly World sold about 1.5 million on Wii U. Not bad considering the Wii U didn't even shift 14 million consoles.



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 151 million (was 73, then 96, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million)

PS5: 115 million (was 105 million) Xbox Series S/X: 57 million (was 60 million, then 67 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)

They announced that they're only going to go by official shipment reports in that thread which means they won't be doing any tracking of their own from now on.

Yes but we will still have software numbers yo look at.

Seeing how the switch is producing some of the best selling games in each of their respective franchises, I would say this can muster 2-3 million easily.
