Now you are saying Nintendo fans are especially vocal in support of the game because of its high Metascore. That is correct. Nintendo fans like good games, and they like to see good games on their systems, as shown by the success of other well-received eShop titles such as SteamWorld Dig, Mutant Mudds, Shin'en games, and so on. Nintendo fans will also call out shit when they see it, they are not blindly praising every eShop game they can find.

I didn't say that.  I said Nintendo fans are vocal when it comes to something seen as an exclusive.  Pretend exclusives are a big thing now you know.   

You should go back to hyping up more exclusives before they come out on other consoles.  Like this one being hyped up by Nintendo fans despite having nothing but three concept images. 

Also 104k after a month.  Let me know when it reaches a quarter of a million.  Only 150k more.

 

Except that I showed an example of a Nintendo fan being downright mad about having exclusive shit. Those games have been hyped by zero Nintendo fans. The difference between them and Shovel Knight is quality, therefore the reason Shovel Knight is hyped by Nintendo fans is its quality. Also, if they treat Shovel Knight like an exclusive, how are they different from Sony fans who treated Destiny as an exclusive or XBox fans who treated Titanfall as an exclusive? You may not have stated the reason for the hype is the Metascore, but that is the conclusion I drew from the information you provided.

As for the bolded, I don't take well to such an uninformed insult.

I will be sure to let you know when it reaches a quarter of a million, provided Yacht Club supplies that information. I'm curious about the 4k you shaved off the figure, but it's hardly worth mentioning.

I don't understand your tone. 108k in four weeks in one region is great. Yacht Club is very happy with their success.

And surely you realize that in order for Nintendo fans to hype multiplatform games, they would require some multiplatform games to hype? Name a multiplatform game coming out on a Nintendo console this year that SHOULD have been hyped by Nintendo fans but was wrongfully ignored.
