Thats not decent. It's actually bad. Switch version includes 2 games that could easily sell 50-70K first week and even though it's a port it's still Dragon Quest which is big in Japan.

We just hope it will have legs.

Good Sale for Zelda and Awesome sale for Horizon has a High chance of getting to 200K or 250K with all the version icnluded. Nice Legs for Nier It oculd end up 300K or more.

D5 bombed..

It might be 2 games, but it is the most expensive non-LE Nintendo SKU I have seen. And unlike the bombas it is 40-60% shipment rate, which I qualify as decent for launch, as can be seen that no Switch game is even close to soldout in this tracking period.

It didn't bombed but those are bad sales. It still has the Dragon quest name in it and has 2 games in it. Also, looking at the shipments those are bad. It means that the game only sold it shipments 40-60% so it's possible that it only sold half of it's shipments or worse.  2nd week will be the test because if it dropped significantly  we won't be expecting another shipment from SE.

EDIT*

BTW: looking at the normal pricing of Switch games it is 6900 yen and DQ  heroes 1 and 2 are complete games . Just looking at D5 and if you compare the 2 will make DQ bundle a steal price for a launch title.
