| hiska-kun said: The data is there. Why is Switch selling well? Because Nights of Azure 2? No, it's selling because Splatoon 2. Zelda and Mario were on Wii U, they are not the reason of Switch sales, but the excuse to get the games as well along Splatoon. |
It's selling not just because of Splatoon but the great 1st party line-up it's offering and the future releases as well. To say that Switch is only selling because of Splatoon 2 is false.
As I recall Switch is sold out the moment the Switch was release. It's still selling even before Splatoon was release.
Nintendo was caught off guard bigtime and they cannot meet the demand for months now. It's a new gadget. New gadget generate hype. Especially when you cannot even purchase it immidiately. It creates the stigma that I want it as well. The more you cannot get it the more you will want it.
It's a hybrid of Home console and Portable so it has mobility. Which as far as I know a big thing in Japan. The ability to play in a big screen then you can go outside and continue your game then you got home again plug it in on your Dock is for me the best selling point of Switch. Which I hope Sony follow as well. Ability to continue playing Uncharted, Bloodbourne and some of the exclusive JRPG like persona when I go out will be gamers dream for me.
Add to that the great software ( Splatoon) it offers. Zelda is a System seller, Mario Kart is a system seller, Arms sold well as well, Then You have Splatoon which is a great system seller. With Mario Odyssey with just a month away. For a hardcore Nintendo fan that is a fantastic line-up in less than a year it was release.
So yeah It's only Splatoon 2.
