BTW miyamotoo. To add to what I said I'm starting to believe that 3rd party games are doing OK. I didn't realise that so many developers and publishers have spoken about sales on the Switch.
It would be nice to see some figures though.

Figures are hard to come by for digital-only games because all console manufacturers have terms that usually prohibit developers from naming exact sales figures. That's why statements of success use comparative values like "Our game sold better on console A than on console B."

Among the big publishers like Capcom, EA etc., it isn't common practice to be transparent about sales of games that are available at both retail and in onlines stores. Announcements of sales figures are usually exclusive to the really big hits while the rest is kept either ambiguous or not mentioned at all.

Yeah. My original point was you couldn't say that 3rd party games are selling good from that list. We have no idea what they have sold on the store.
