*Looks at Switch numbers*

... Wow.

Where is Keanu ? You can't say wow on the internet inteout Keanu to illustrate it

I'm not surprised at the Switch's domination. It's expected at this point. PS4 is still good. Xbox still a distant 3rd. Not bad overall though.

Its not bad when its outsold 7 to 1, vs the Switch? and 3 to 1 vs the PS4?

42k used to be when people started saying the 3DS was done.


When does it get bad?
20k pr week? 10k pr week?

I think its fair to use the word "bad" to desribe how the xbox is currently selling.



Switch outsold rival platforms by 100k when combining all the other systems. Nintendo put consoles in 310k players hands... that is a reason why people will sound rightly shocked at this stage if any publisher or developer doesn't consider creating a Switch port of a game, it's financially leaving more money on the table to put their game on anything else right now.

Think of the numbers when that $200 refresh hits... or Pokemon, or the holiday season. I really can't see how Nintendo fucks this year up unless it turns out that bitter taste you get when you (and everyone does) lick a Switch cartridge is actually from a bitter version of Anthrax they've been coating the games with.

Isn't it obvious? These companies don't care about leaving money on the table because what's more important to them than earning money is being biased against Nintendo.

Spoiler!
If there's money to be made, 3rd parties will come.

Yeah I'm with JRPGfan on this one, selling 42k when your competition is selling 151k and 291k is pretty bad.

I don't know if that was his intention, but I interpreted that last sentence as not bad in total, meaning when you add all consoles together. This would bring you to about 500k consoles sold that week, which truly ain't half bad.



Holy shit!!! Switch went super saiyan!

Nope, that's in 2 months... with the Lite models: Yellow (SS 1-3), Turquoise (Super Sayan Blue/SSGSS) and Grey (Ultra Instinct)



Oh my, NS is overwhelming even during Summer.
PS4 good for its age, but it definitely needs a price cut next Autumn.
XBOne meh, but MS can't rush its launch, tech just wouldn't be ready, and even if it were, HW problems nullified XB360 head start, doing a mess like that again would kill the XB brand altogether.
3DS finally following PSV on the sunset boulevard.
