1) All of those games you mentioned put together sold about 1/2 of Animal Crossing's total. The year 2020 was all about Animal Crossing when it came to sales. Most of the other games hardly did anything except for the evergreens. 2) All of your other comments seem to be based off what people say on the internet. The internet is the land of bullshit. If the internet says one thing, then you should probably bet that the opposite will happen. The internet complains about Pokemon Sw/Sh, and it's on track to be the second best selling title ever. If they are complaining about OLED and BD/SP, then you should bet on both doing well. The internet narrative has very little to do with sales reality. |
So games only count as success and pushing hardware if they sell 25-30 million copies? Seriously, are we at that point now where expectations of sales are this ridiculously high? 3 million sales is WONDERFUL and absolutely moves hardware. Yes, nothing beat ACNH, but I didn't say anything did last year. In my opinion, OLED Switch is just filling a niche market on Switch. It will do no better than the New 3ds/New 3ds XL did compared to 3ds. |
I don't know. The OLED preorders sold out within minutes, despite the Steam Deck being announced the same day. But, even if it does no better than the New 3DS line, those systems still added around 15 million units, which was 20% of 3DS' lifetime total.
