They are not definitely great numbers for Pokemon game but they are good enough in any case. Remember, this lowest install base than any Pokemon game was launched on (if I saw correctly 14% of all Switch owners in Japan bought game on launch), has highest price point for any Pokemon game, and definitely has highest digital sales for any Pokemon games (that are not tracked).

Also, insaiders from Japan told that only 2-3 weeks before launch game was completely dead and only than things start heating up, also that game has great word of mouth and that game should continue with very strong sales.

Well MHW on ps4 proved you don't need a huge install base to have a big launch. 

 

However I do agree with the bit in bold. 

surprised since you were one of the biggest supporters of revenue and profits for a game. Lets go made more money in its first week then any other pokemon game ever did WW with maybe the exception of sun/moon.

 

Where is the math you use when talking about that my friend?? :)

Edit: example of NoA sold 1mil fw and ORAS and XY sold 1mil FW this is what we are lookin at...

 

ORAS+XY = $40 x 1mil = $40mil fw

Lets Go = $60 x 600k (single sku) = $36mil

Lets Go Pokeball (with game only) = $100 x 400k = $40mil

 

ORAS+XY made roughly 80mil combine revenue in this ex vs Lets Go doing alone $76mil

 

Just using your old math tools. Comes in handy actually ;P
