Switch Lite to the rescue; hopefully Nintendo are getting their butts moving with gearing up production outside China as much and as fast as possible.

I think parts/components may be a problem in addition to production.

Hopefully we don't see a major drop soon.



28. [PS4] Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIV (Koei Tecmo, 01/17/20) – 1,776 (33,644)

Another week of strong legs, unfortunately this may be the end of ROTKXIV in the top 30, as it will probably drop out of the top 30 next week. I can assume that the legs will remain decently strong. Only 8 more days until I unlock the English version.

Those aren't legs. The game also has only sold half as much as its predecessor so far.

Of course it is legs.

05./00. [PS4] Romance of the Three Kingdoms 14 # (Koei Tecmo) {2020.01.16} (¥8.800) - 20.095 / NEW

Now at 33,644.

[PS4] Romance of the Three Kingdoms 13 (Koei Tecmo, 01/28/16) – 20,101 (New)

LTD at ~ 177./000. [PS4] Romance of the Three Kingdoms 13 # <SLG> (Koei Tecmo) {2016.01.28} (¥8.800) - 33.526 / NEW (20.101 <70,90%>)

It has already past ROTK 13 PS4 version and will go on to sell more of course. Digital plus legs / PC version will match the other ports in time.

In comparison with ROTK 13 PS4, ROTK 14 has great legs.



Splatoon 2 and BOTW at #14 and #15 after more than two and half years and almost three years respectively on shelves. As evergreen as a pine forest.



Leggings = BOTW, SMO, Splatoon 2, MM2, MK8D, NSMBUD, SMP, Minecraft and etc.

1. A game that's charting for 5 weeks with double digit percentage drops every time and that we will never see again is the opposite of a game that has legs.

2. I don't see how ROTK14 has accomplished anything noteworthy. First week sales are 60% of its total, which is average. Overall sales are, as I said, half of the previous game because the PS3 version has been dropped. Where did the PS3 people go? 3. ROTK14 selling on par with the PS4 version of ROTK13 is actually a very bad thing because it shows that almost all of the PS3 base has left, or the franchise is declining so badly that sales have been halved either way.

We will take this section by section...

1. Because it is in the ROTK franchise, a franchise notorious for poor legs especially since it is a 8800 yen game, and it often only charts in top 30 for a week or 2. This is actually good legs in comparison.

2. It is half right now, not accounting digital or PC sales. ROTKXIII is actually on 6 systems vs 2 for ROTKXIV. Clearly the other 4 systems weren't sustainable due to poor sales or projected poor sales in the PS3s case. Since these sales are so good, ROTKXV is pretty much guaranteed and that is all that matters to me.

3. The comparison is ROTK XIII (PS4) LTD sales vs ROTK XIV (PS4) 5 week sales, with ROTKXIV already taking the lead. Surely you know there is a massive difference there.

Those are just evergreens. You can have legs without being an evergreen
