Rather strange news from China regarding Labo:

Nintendo Labo Are The Best Selling Video Games On Amazon China

16 hours ago   Iggy Comments 1 Comment

Although Nintendo Labo isn’t officially localized into Chinese yet, it isn’t stopping Chinese customers from purchasing it to play!

On Amazon China’s video game bestseller rankings, four different variations of Nintendo Labo are currently dominating the charts – No. 1 goes to Robot Kit along with the Japanese pre-order bonuses (this is a huge surprise), Variety Kit at No. 2, Robot Kit at No. 3, and Variety Kit with Japanese bonuses at No. 4.

If you’re curious what follows Nintendo Labo on the bestseller charts, it’s a whole bunch of other Nintendo accessories and games, such as the Super Famicom Mini, Dark Souls Remastered, and Nintendo Labo masking tapes. Good to see Nintendo doing well in China!

This is pretty amazing, especially given that Switch hasn't even released in China yet! Nintendo need to get their fingers out and release everything in China ASAP, as with this sort of evidence, China could be a HUGE market for them! I just hope they realise there is this sort of demand there.

Agreed. China is a potentially massive market, literally more people than the US, Japan, and Europe combined.

It's simply too big an opportunity for them not to make every effort to tap into.

Yowch, what country do you live in?

I had a feeling the house would go over well with girls, it's basically a virtual dollhouse crossed with a cute pet. Let us know how the motorbike and piano go!

It reminds me alot of a giant tomogatchi and those were very popular will girls.

Ill keep yoi guys updated, piano is the one ive been looking forward to most.

Yeah that is what it reminded me of too, a modern Tamagotchi, and I remember how much my female peers went nuts for those things back when I was in primary school.
