While I agree with your post, it's not entirely true. Yes there is no cliff, just the downwards slope, I believe the switch will sell more in japan 2022 then the ps5 will sell lifetime in japan by the end of 2022, there are still a lot of games that are coming to playstation that usually do well The atelier games, almost everything by Squeenix, the trials of cold steel and ys games retain a timed exclusivity, senran kagura and the nepu games, I bet my butt that dragon quest 12 will be on playstaion and sell better due to being timed exclusive and let's not forget about elden ring and future monster hunter games, resi evil, devil may cry and visual novels do quite well. Like I kept telling the Sony fans who were hellbent on spreading the rumour that the switch was a failed console that will sell less then the wii u. Let's not count Sony out juuuuuust yet |
There’s no confirmation that DQXII will be a timed exclusive yet. Plus, Falcom apparently is now making Switch a bigger focus so their next games are likely gonna be multiplat day and date in Japan. And speaking of visual novels, aren’t they doing better on Switch?
As we’ve seen here in the top 30, there are a plethora of titles of various genres doing well on Switch. I was surprised that Dying Light for Switch actually charted, albeit 5k units for FW is nothing to write home about. And even then, no PS title is able to crack 3k units for the week? Something is up since Tales of Arise, RE8, CoD, Spider-Man, Demon Souls, etc., have already released on PS4/5. None of them are able to crack 2-3k units for the week?
