Let me check:
- Civilization VI: should be around 4 million by now
- ARK: over 5M by 2016
- FIFA and NBA: do I need to dig up numbers
- Skyrim: 20M+ by 2014
- Fortnite: 100M+
- Minecraft: probably the best-selling game ever
Switch has clearly more big games than Wii, GC and WiiU combined. It baffles me how 'big games' nowadays is synonymous with a small selection of action and FPS titles, while a majority of games with great sales are ignored, just because these sales happen on PC or the genre is deemed unworthy for ... reasons.
And for the holidays: not 3rd-party, but I'm pretty sure Pokemon and Smash may be among the biggest holiday blockbusters.
