My early prediction got somethings right and somethings wrong:
I'm thinking Nintendo will see a massive spike in terms of both hardware and software due to much stronger lineup early on in 2020 compared to 2018/2019. correct
I would not be suprised if there is at least 10 Switch titles with over 100K Sales this quarter. correct
Massive sales and new demographics buying Switches due to Animal Crossing will drive higher software sales in other evergreen titles. undecided due to hw shortages
Pokemon and Ring Fit Adventure will benefit the most from this. partly true, both benefited but less than I expected due to hw & sw shortages especially for RFA
If Tokyo Mirage is able to clear >100K this quarter it will be a sign. dead wrong
sry Tokyo Mirage
Hope 3rd Parties have some female focused gaming experiences they can push in 2020. partly true, Hatsune Miku will probably clear 100K without problems
Still one week left but right now Top 10 Software is up 55% YoY, and next week we will see that number increase considerably.
We are likely going to see over 4.5M Software Sold just among the Top 10 Switch Titles:
