Pretty good for ARMS but legs will be more interesting. Ys VIII is also holding for some reason.

 

SFV and TK7 didn't have digital sales?

1) for digital only Switch users, buying digitally from Japan is cheapest and you get the game early. A lot of people did this for ARMS.
2) ARMS on Amazon included a discount code for Splatoon 2 if you bought there and it charted pretty high.

Thats why digital sales for ARMS are expecting that are very strong.

Your first point was also true for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and that didn't really help..

Also Amazon is only one retailer. It can only have so much impact.

And SFV had strong digital sales too (22%). We don't have Tekken 7 digital numbers yet.

Either way SFV and Tekken bombed hard so they do deserve to be beaten lol
