Bro we just get news. Every time we get something we cant just be like "but but". I mean day 1 we got the first announcement and people said the same thing as what your saying right now, yet we got paid numbers just a couple hours later.

 

Think of it like shipments and sell thru.

Ony problem is that with shipments the publishers actually get paid. So the analogy doesn't work here.

Correct me if im wrong but i think they still get paid with just downloads. Obviously not as much but still. Thats said an advantage this game gets for DLs is brand exposure like pokemon go that it boost software sales for said franchise (super mario run already boosted sales for nsmb for wii on amazon for ex) like super mario maker 3ds.

 

Lastly my analogy wasnt more on getting paid. I was saying in comparison that company reveals downloads like shipments and sometimes give out sell thru like paid (mobile)

 

Ex Pokemon SuMo nintendo gave out 10mil shipment figure and not sell thru intill the following week, with super mario run they gave out downloads first followed by paid consumers in a couple hours.
