With new NPD data today, 2020 is up to 14.84M now for Jan-Aug. Given the way the rest of this year has gone, I expect adjustments upwards for Europe/ROTW once we get Nintendo's offical FYQ2 data. US YoY for Jul+Aug is now up 71%. Sep will be huge in the US with the stock ticking back up again, I think anywhere from 6-800K. Lite launch last year won't matter. US NPD Sep 2019 was 429K. JP YoY for Jul+Aug is up 129%. Sep will be huge as well, but hard comp against Lite launch in Japan last year. 5 weeks of Sep were 656K. We'll see what happens. Sell-through for the quarter overall looks to be targeting 5.7-6.2M - maybe a tad bit higher if Europe is indeed a little undertracked. Shipments could exceed NDS records and cross 7M for the quarter I think. |
Considering Super Mario 3D All Stars is releasing in September, I expect Nintendo to ship out a bunch of hardware too. Of course, the marketplace is going to quickly buy up whatever they ship, but the 2nd biggest game of the year (after Animal Crossing) should probably accompany a really big hardware shipment too.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
