Im bumping this thread to know if Goodnightmoon found this data.

He talked in such a way that i assume he holds in his power all the information necessary to prove us wrong Don!

There are already 1st party games that are a good prove of that

A great example is Arms, a game that debuted 2nd on UK with barely 10k sales and behind Horizon on its 16th week, for many this was a sign of flop, yet by August Nintendo said they had already shipped 1.2m of copies worldwide

Other example is Splatoon 2 that debuted 2nd after Crash bandicoot on its 4rd week with barely 25k - 30k, yet by September the game had already sold 3.6m worldwide

Even BoTW was released selling barely a 40% of what Horizon sold that same week yet right now the switch version has sold 4.7m worlwide, wich is like a 30% more than what Horizon did.

No, UK has never been a good indicator of success when it comes to Nintendo.

Comparing Nintendo 1st party games to third party games on a Nintendo system. Third party games dont sell well on Nintendo systems unless they are third party exclusives (rabbits). It has been that way since the gamecube era. Selling less units than a PSVR game whilst having four times the userbase is poor performance for the Switch.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar
